U2(2x400), kernel 2.4.31-sparc-r2, came up cleanly with X-modular using |
| 2 |
the script posted at http://dev.gentoo.org/~fmccor/files/X-modular.sh |
| 3 |
with one exception: I did not let the script try to |
| 4 |
populate /etc/portage/package.[unmask,keywords] files because I had |
| 5 |
already populated them for X-modular. I do not know if the population |
| 6 |
attempt catches everything. As always, revdep-rebuild after an install |
| 7 |
is mandatory. |

OBSERVATIONS |
| 10 |
------------ |
| 11 |
1. VTswitch seems to be inoperable, any kernel, any system. |
| 12 |
2. With kernel-2.6.14, AltGraph+<any key> seems not to work. With |
| 13 |
kernel 2.4.31, that key is mapped to Mode_switch, and it works as |
| 14 |
expected. With 2.6.14, it is AltR and does nothing. Remap it to |
| 15 |
Mode_switch ( xmodmap -e 'keycode 113 = Mode_switch'); it still does |
| 16 |
nothing. (Of course, also you need |
| 17 |
xmodmap -e 'keycode 117 = Multi_key' with kernel 2.6.xx, but you already |
| 18 |
knew that.) Perhaps with kernel-2.6.xx, Mode_switch is not the correct |
| 19 |
mapping; I'll play with it later. |
