Hi, I've recently got a new 'old' computer (a p60) withy 2 ide channels instead of one where my secondary debian system used to live.
So after recompiling the kernel to add pci bios support for the new 'old' p60, i threw the disks from the older 486 into the p60. Everything is fine and it works a charm bar acouple of things. 1. The p60 has a ps2 mouse (at least, that's the connector type), but gpm won't coinfigure it (it just gets stuck at trying ttyS0-ttyS3 at various baud rates for ever), and when i try to force it to use \dev\psaux i get an 'operation not permitted' error (\dev\psaux exists - crw------ or something similar). Same problems under X to - the server crashes with the 'operation not permitted error'. I remember when setting up debian, the process guides you through what mouse you have - but it's changed now and I don't want to have to re-install Debian just to get the ps2 mouse working! 2. I was using a spanish layout keyboard (don't ask - the secondary system was a mish-mash of scrounged bit's and pieces), but now I have a UK layout one (with a ps2 style connector...), and I don't where to change the default keyboard setting. Under X i do, but the base system. Any one able to help me? Thanks, Martin ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
