you don't need to be root, if fact, if you only want to use openoffice yourself.
if you really want to do that, just su to root with any terminal under gnome, then you
can do anything you like.

sid and X is 4.2.0. There are two mouses, one is trackpoint, the other is
touchpad. I configured the XFree86Config-4 as /dev/psaux with PS2

Hi,
When I boot into my system, I get this information, and the syslog
record this every minute. I try to search this with google but only find
answers written in languages other than English, so I don't understand.

question is when I use emacs, I want to screen out those hot keys, as
there are some conflicts between them and emacs's definition, how can I
make it?
