I am sorry if this appears in the list for the second time. I had some
email problems and probably lost some messages. I did try to check the
August-archive but could not find my previous enquiry there.
1. Since upgrading to Debian 2.0 my compose key (Control-. on a normal
screen and Control-Scroll-lock in X11) does not work anymore. In X11 I had
to run xkeycaps to restore it, but I do not know how to restore it in for
normal use. My .inputrc looks like this:
set meta-flag on
set convert-meta off
set output-meta on
set scroll_lock off
What can I do to restore the use of the compose key and not having to run
xkeycaps everytime I start X11?
2. It took me a long time to customize settings for xterm, pine and emacs
for X11 using Debian 1.3.1. Now those settings have no effect under
Debian 2.0. I do not know how to get that right again. I hope that using
Linux does not mean that I have to all the configuration over again every
time I do an upgrade. My .xsession and .Xdefaults - files are apparently
ignored by X.
Can somebody please help met on these two issues.
Johann
