Hamm --> Slink: 1. Compose-key lost 2. X11-display problem
Hallo,
Last night I "upgraded" my mixed hamm/slink/potato system to a
slink-based system.
Everything is working satisfactorily now except for the two problems
mentioned in the subject line.
1. I cannot get the compose key working again in console mode. When this
happened in my previous upgrade I solved it by gzipping and copying the
file /drivers/char/defkeymap.map from my kernel-source (2.2.9)tree to
/etc/kbd/default.map.gz. It did not help this time. I even copied the
backup-file I had from my previous /etc/kbd/default.map.gz but that did
not help.
I hope somebody can help me with this one. I cannot afford to spend
another day or two reconfiguring my system.
2. I have gnome installed and use icewm with it. I use startx.
Xwindows comes up in 1024x768-mode and <Crtl><Alt><KP_+>/<KP_-> does
not change anythin in the display. How can I repair that?
The display section in my XF86Config contains the following lines:
Section "Screen"
Driver "accel"
Device "S3 86C764 (generic)"
Monitor "My Monitor"
Subsection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "800x600" "1024x768"
