I'm starting to find some things I can't figure out
how to change in Debian. I'm sure there will be more :)
No Autorun X / Exit to CLI
Currently, X starts immediately when I boot the
machine. If I remove S99gdm from the default
runlevel, it doens't. This is good, I don't
want X to run automatically.
Probelm is when I drop back to the CLI from
X, it's not dropping the video back to text
mode, so I get garbage on the screen.
Mapping the Alt Key
How do I map the Alt keys to send escape
(or more accurately, how do I get Alt to
send meta to emacs?)

'Microsoft also warned today that the era of "open computing," the
free exchange of digital information that has defined the personal
computer industry, is ending.'

Will Microsoft permit you to use your mission critical data when
you need it? Linux will, and you have the source to prove it.
