Few more questions
Hello everyone.
After updating to Unstable/testing in ran into a few
problems. So I made a list.
Any answer/suggestion would be helpful.
1.) X11 and Gpm bite over the mouse.
To use the mouse under X11 I have to turn Gpm off.
2.) I use german keyboard layout. In console mode everything
works fine (Umlaute, etc.) but under X11 I don't get
the characters reached through AltGr+"key"
i.e.: @ which is AltGr+q
3.) How do I uninstall packages which I compiled from source?
4.) GnomeICU crashes when I try to send files.
5.) I have a Cd-RW and want to use it for backups.
What is the recommended way?
6.) Is it possible to use xplanet with Enlightenment.
Can it be set as default background?
Xplanet starts but when using multiple desktops it stops after
switching to another tier.
7.) To connect to the Internet via DSL I use the command:
pppd call provider --- as root!!
Is there a better way?
Giving pppd user privileges seems like a security hole.
Thanks in advance,
Nikolai.
ps: maybe more to come
