reboot

I had some troubles , did i missed something ? :

keyboard map is srewed
some libs are missing (rxvt is ok, but not xterm)
glxinfo said no Direct Rendering (even after modprobe -v ati_agp )

There should be a more proper way to install it over Debian (with stow, dpkg hold …) is nt it ?

Well I give up for today,

Wanna help : http://who.is.free.fr/wiki/index.php?XWindow
