Probably already been done, but can anyone tell me what I need to edit to get a UK keyboard in the new Xorg in Slack 13? Its apparently not handled by xorg.conf now, and HAL is suppose to deal with this stuff. However, its doesn't on my test machine (plus I kill HAL after first boot as its a damn nuisance), and I recall there was something that could be dropped into .xinitrc ...

I've got an old but extremely useful piece of software that won't run on anything more recent than Win 98. It won't run on XP or under Wine, though strangely, it used to run under OS/2 (which had Win 3.1 built in)! I've always kept an old machine running '98 solely so I could use this software, but with Virtualisation coming of age, I thought I'd try that. I installed ...

Anybody got hints'n'tips regarding upgrading Xfce in Slackware 12.2? I'm thinking there might be a few "can't find XYZ" things if I miss a lib or maybe don't tweak a config here or there. I'm assuming 12.2 can handle the new .txz packages? -- *=( http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/ *=( For all your UK news needs.
