hi
on my powerbook g4 with a swiss keyboard, both alt keys produce the same
keycode in xev. Is there a way to determine, which alt key is pressed?
I would like to use the right alt key as the right mouse button. Does
somebody know the correct keycode?
Thanks,
Gaudenz

hi
because the evolution package in debian-powerpc unstable is out of date,
I tried to build the source packages myself (I built gtkhtml, bonobo,
bonobo-conf and evolution) and it worked. So my question is, why do
these packages not go into the archive, when the builds for powerpc seem
to work?

Hi
This is a request for testers. I just uploaded a new version of
Mac-on-Linux to unstable. Please test the new versions and report bugs.
I'm specially interested in tests of Mac OS 9.x and earlier and earlier
versions of Mac OS X as I can't test these myself.
This new version of MOL should sup
