David, no encontre por ningún lado en el CD de slackware
7.1 loadmap y tmapoco es.map. Pero la configuración con
kbd.tgz parece ser la mejor opción, aunque todavia no lo
termino de configurar, tal vez hoy lo haga.

Thanks too for who gave me a link for kmap.tgz, but this
does not work for me, some keys not work, i can't type
"ñ". Sorry i don't remember who was.

A few days ago, Diego ask for help to translate BL to
spanish, i'm not a programer, i'm a web designer, and i see
in the Diego's spanish web site he need some help to
translate the FAQ and other pages of BL english web site. If
he likes i can do that job and him can use his valuable time
to translate the BL distribution. At the moment i have
available space in a web server of the Universidad
Autónoma de Tamaulipas wich i use for the Radio
Universidad web site. I can arrange about 2 Gb here to a BL
mirror site in México to download BL, and if it seems well
to Diego, i can put a copy of his web site translation.
Maybe later i can be able to publish an ftp site too.
At the moment BL 1.8 the special 4mb RAM packages and BL
2.03 are avaible to download in my server the url is
http://radiouni.uat.mx/basiclinux

Thanks for BL (i'm learnig a lot with BL) and for your help.
Ernesto

Thanks for this info. I now also have Links 2.1.9 running with inline
graphics in console mode.

Install svgalib (did not need to configure it).

links -g -mode 640x480x256

(I have a monitor that only does 640 resolution).


I get a screen with a big mouse arrow on it. The mouse works
(surprisingly since I did not install gpm and I am not running X).
The arrow keys ALSO work. They don't work for me in X (unless I am still
using the wrong set of arrow keys - hard to get used to this 102-key
keyboard). There is no way to number links. It is slower than
nongraphics console Links 2.1.9 but it is certainly faster than graphical
Links 2.1.9 in X modem since I don't have to first load X. And I presume
it will display more than the 16 colors that the X version does with the
16-color server. Also I can use my 84-key keybaord, and the backspace
works. Many advantages.

Miscellany. Links 2.1.9 will not run with the xmono server (cannot set
color depth). Flwriter says it won't work with 1-bit color (rather stupid
for a wordprocessor to require color at all in my opinion - it works just
fine for me on a mono VGA monitor. The BIG surprise is that Opera 6.03
DOS work with xmono. Probably it will be a bit faster that way.
