They do suggest that even if you don't make the switch you should
reprogram CapsLock to give BackSpace. I had long had it giving Escape
(needed frequently in my favourite editor, Vim) but I'm trying it out
as BackSpace now. I find I often hit Return instea
again, it may all boil down to personal preference.

My question: is it really worth the trouble of learning a new way of
typing, if you are already a moderately competent touch typist on the
QWERTY keyboard?

There is currently a bug in gnome-keyring which keeps throwing up an
error message about "no socket to connec to". I don't know why I have
this package, given that I don't use gnome (or any other desktop
manager). Will anything dreadful happen if I remove it?

eople, me included, prefer to use a window manager
and no desktop. But I suppose that, coming from Windows, you might feel lost
without one.

I'm not bothered about the buttons - they don't work on the Epson

the performance of scanner itself?

So it _ought_ to work, but I have come across posts in other lists
(ubuntu) where people report failure. So I have got cold feet about it
and am wondering if I ought to return it unopened. Hence my question:
has anyone used this model successfully (or not)?

I'm very thankful that I came to Linux from DOS. Even at that time I
dislike Windows (version 3.0!) so Linux was less of a culture shock than
it would otherwise have been.

That
he vim and xmonad mailing lists but no result;
at least one person says he cannot reproduce the error. I've reported it
as a Debian bug but so far have only had a routine acknowledgement.
If there is anyone else using this setup, could they please see if they
can reproduce it?
