Are there any step by step docs specifically for debian? The only docs I could

What exactly is happening with quik? Is it telling OF to read an

So 0:17:0 is the correct bus ID.
This rang a bell inside my head, I just tested with a wrong bus ID - I also

Probably /dev/usbmouse. If you are using a recent kernel with the new
input layer enabled, then it will be at /dev/input/mice instead.

Hi,
I am trying to configure XF4 for Lombard.
The distribution is the latest from Debian,
where I added the fbdv v4.0.1 of the LinuxPPC
distribution (Debian still has the old version).
You can find my XF86Config and the resulting
log at the following address:

Perhaps we could all just try to get along?
Our lesson for the day:
1) People with problems should ask for help politely
2) People with answers should avoid the temptation to be snide
Then we can devote more bandwidth to helping each other make great Free
Software, and less to random list snipin

Michel might have taken issue with the implied sense of urgency in your

Use my kernel at this address:

The docs refer to the previous version, but if you click on the

Well, these lists have been in existence for as long as I've had access to

Is this the dependency on libgc4-dev thing, if yes, it is also broken on i386.
