Since you're not using XKB, the console keyboard mapping might be used, and if that's not completely correct, that's your problem. You might want to look into using xmodmap to fix this (although I never tested it myself, so I don't know whether it works) > or does X have to be > configured manually on Woody?

The SCSI-driver is not complete perfect; it shows this behaviour when you try to access more than one device on the SCSI-bus. There's an option to disable some part of that driver which avoids the hanging part, but which slows SCSI-access down quite drastically. You might want to use that option if you need the CD-ROM; otherwise, I'd advice installing from the 'net, if at all possible. > Is there a newer kernel (using 2.2.20) > that might have better SCSI cdrom support?

I was hoping that going to Woody would fix it, but... -- wouter at grep dot be "An expert can usually spot the difference between a fake charge and a full one, but there are plenty of dead experts." -- National Geographic Channel, in a documentary about large African beasts.
