Not yet. I'm trying to understand how to sshd on this computer from ssh on the same machine. Is there a ssh howto file? My first step is to make a /home/ljmoore/.ssh directory. drwxr-xr-x 2 ljmoore users4096 May 26 07:06 .ssh cd .ssh ssh-keygen Generating public/private rsa key pair While that is working, I'll ask - on the G4 and MacSSH, after I "Export public key ..." the sheet says to 'send the resulting file to the admin.'

So, to summarize what I think I know about the problem: Potato: XFree86 3.? [Don't remember key repeat problem] Woody: XFree86 4.? No key repeat Sarge: XFree 86 4.? No key repeat Etch-m68k: X.org Key repeat works This may just be a problem with XFree 4. Anyone know if I can install XF86 3.x or x.org on Sarge? It would be interesting to see if that solves the problem. Failing that, would a dist-upgrade be the best way to experiment with etch-m68k and x.org, or will I have to do a fresh install? > no success with xmodmap experiments with the cursor/page keys though. > still dead keys. tried pc104 layout instead of mac and that got rid > of xkbcomp errors but dead keys still dead. > > AFAIK nothing wrong with my keyboard. however i have a non mac > adb keyboard i could try (adesso), i would rather not I need it > elsewhere. > Hmm. As I recall, there is another layout (or was in XFree86 4.x) for the Mac called something like "macintosh_old". I believe this was for the older, small ADB keyboards that didn't have Function keys. It sounds like you're using a full-sized keyboard, but it might tell us something if you try out the other layout. > although i have more Xclients going now from debian menu, xemacs > is still crashing, producing some verbose error messages.

I just use a vi clone in a terminal or or whatever GUI editor is available in X. But I know from experience that those text editor keystrokes get burned into the synapses, and if you're stuck with something you're not used to, it can be a painful experience. > I tried your other window managers suggestions and although they > do work, (fluxbox and flwm) I feel openbox is better in general and > here as well. > Maybe I'll check out openbox sometime.

What am I as the admin supposed to do with it? If you add the public key to your ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file, that will authorize you to log in to that account using the corresponding private key. I'm not sure what the corresponding authorized_keys file would be when using MacSSH. I recommend using a program called "keychain" to manage your ssh keys while you're logged in. There should be a Debian package for it. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/keychain/ Dave -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
