Usually Ctrl-. , so to get the character you want you type the
sequence "Ctrl-. ~ n". But it depends on your keytable, I am not sure
where Debian puts keytables - anyone?

'd bet on is quite low. :-)
As for the Great Universal Windows Installer, there are non-SVGA cards
out there, like the Hercules and clones. Does Windows 9[0-9] work at
all on those?

FWIW (and OT :-) the middle button on an Artec doesn't work in Windoze

It's just a strange mouse. I'd buy a Logitech Mouseman instead.

Emacs does the latter; I had the vague feeling that
(recent) XEmacs does the former. But Emacs (or mev) doesn't need any
mouse configuration in either case, only the gpm daemon does.

done with t-mouse, disable it in
your .xemacs or site-lisp/default.el, wherever it is. If it's
compiled in, it's probably a command line option or it can't be
disabled at all.

I'd add a new zone file and reference it from /etc/named.conf.

Another way is the grabmode program from SVGATextmode (when run from
an xterm or rxvt window of course).

mon
or a zombie, so you need not know about it. Maybe you should look in
the /proc hierarchy for clue the next time it happens.
