A couple of questions & suggestions....
« on: January 27, 2004, 03:50:32 pm »
Hi all

I played around with the X11 Rom for 3 days now on my C700.
First I\'d like to give my thanks to the cacko-team for their
excellent work !

1a) is there any documentation beside the short installation guide ?
1b)how the hell am i supposed to type a \":\" \"=\" etc since the fn key
seems to be dead (or remapped) ?
1c) konqueror is EXTREMLY slow. it takes about 3 MINUTES to start and
show google.com ! I tried to display this page here but almost runout of battery  
anybody else experiencing this ?

2a)tab-key seems to toggle its function between tab and capslock
2b)the entries generated by the lan-applet are completly useless, it
took me almost 2 days to figure out how to get my wlan up. I only
got it working after i copied the section from the original sharp rom
wlan-ng.opts.....

ZUG-TEAM: would it be possible to setup a wikipage so that user
could post their tips n\' tricks there ?

that\'s all for the moment....

I can\'t help you with most of your questions... but there is a wiki page in the ZUG How-tos section for the X11 ROM.  You can also browse to this page at the bottom of the wiki main page.

oops.. thanks for pointing me to the wiki page....

from your signature i see you are using the X11 rom as well....
doesn\'t toggle the tab key it\'s function after once used in bash for tab-completion ?
how do you access the \"purple\" keys \":, =\" ?

I have the X11 ROM and the tab key works fine, it doesn\'t toggle as you describe. I also access the purple keys using the Fn key without problem. Maybe something went wrong while installing the ROM? I\'m using a C760 if that makes a difference.

doublec,
thx for your response.... the c700 might realy make a difference since i had to
use a kernel from an old x11-rom (see also http://www.zaurususergroup.com/index.php?n...iewtopic&t=858)

edit:
i finaly figured out what the problem was with the keybord.
somehow my .xsession was not pointing to the /etx/x11/xinit/xinitrc
so the corgi.xmoadmap was not loaded...
