[andrew_pmk@hotmail.com: Forward Backspace (**annoying**)]



Someone please direct this person to the Debian X FAQ (or quote it for
him), which has a very long section on troubleshooting this very issue.

You don't know how proud it makes me to see those FAQ's I write go unread,
year after year...

I have recently installed a new version of libc and xfree86-common and 
strangely, the backsspace key behaves like a delete key. This only happens 
in X11 not text mode and it is annoyingg. This happens with rxvt/xterm 
(debian) and netscape (not debian).
