Sounds entirely rational. Because here and with CTWM I have
simple xterms; on my "new tao" runnning Gnome as a manager, I use
Konsole. Entrely to get the BEL in vi/nvi.
I find that if I use Settings -> Keyboard and then select
"FreeBSD Console", I come fairly close. Then [Backspace]
backs up, but the characters are not erased as I space
backways. UsingTerminal, it defaults to this.
Anther indicator thata Garrett is right is that by doing an
"ssh -X tao", X gives me
X Error of failed request: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)
Major opcode of failed request: 100 (X_ChangeKeyboardMapping)
Serial number of failed request: 7
Current serial number in output stream: 12
q3 20:06 <tao> [5032]
If this gives annybody a clue, I'd be much obliged for some
insights. .....
