I tried to change XkbRules to xorg, now the error in Gnome is gone, which is very nice. However the problem still persists in KDE, meaning that the left mouse button will move windows instead of acting normal. I even tried to remove the whole XkbRules line, but it did not help. Any ideas? I'd really like to get back to using KDE (altough Gnome surely looks quite nice). I also did the ln xorg.lst xfree86.lst stuff adviced in the kxkb message thread, but to no avail. I think that doing a clean install of FC 2 is the The-Other-OS way. I have been very pleased on ability to fix almost any kind of problem on my box (including several cases of deleted kernel ;) ) without a need of re-install of whole distribution. So I'll delay the re-install as long as possible. :) Thanks for the help so far, it has helped me to get this at least partially working. -- Rami Saarinen __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
