X Upgrade Problem Part II



Well, I deleted the MD5Sums, and upgraded, until I tried to log in...ha 
ha ha...My keymap is back to that weird something-or-other keymap, where
r=3 and so forth. What's wrong powerpc .debs assuming you have a mac
style keyboard? Or even asking if assuming is the wrong way to go about
it? Clearly assuming is wrong because it doesn't work for me!! Now I
have to go and re-research the solution to getting a working keymap!
What a pain _that_ is. I even chose to retain the original xfree86config
file...

So, this didn't go too well for me...
