Keyboard on console; and base files
On my machine the keyboard on the console is seriously deranged, so
that typing an a gets a "q" on the screen, and so on. X11 is fine.
In trying to upgrade, I am running into the base files message about
/etc/inputrc, but I have deleted the messages and cannot get onto the
archive since the mirrors haven't been updated. What do I have to do?
I deleted /etc/inputrc---no dice, dpkg just still believes it is
there. I removed the libreadlineg2 package, but when I ran apt-get
upgrade again, it installed it first, leaving the same error.
I also have to disable xdm. Can I do this temporarily somehow, with a
config file?
Thanks again for help, many times...
Alan
