Well, this is what i've done.  Just would like to see some other xmodmap files done
by someone else, which might be more useful then my own.
Binding henkan or some other key to kinput2, or the menu button to the gnome
panel's start button. Things like this.
Of course I could figure these out, but takes some time.

If you're using esd, this might be it. You could find it out by: $fuser -v /dev/dsp

Thanks for all the answers regarding my autologin question. Expect is a pretty cool
thingy, I just made a script. Probably this is the way i'm gonna go, because the
.rhosts thing is unlikely to work, but didn't check it yet.

Maybe you misunderstood my question here. I don't think I would obtain any more
privileges on the target system that I have now. I have already a login access
granted.  I didn't ask "how could I get a rootshell".

I'm not exploiting anything here IMHO. Anyone could do the same thing with my
system who _has_ a login account.

It can be considered as lying, you're right. I'm perfectly aware that it's not a
nice thing to do. Actually I would rather feel this way in the case of "swapping
login favors with a friend". Setting up an autologin script would accomplish the
same task, but i wouldn't have to rely on the friend to do it and he would be
involved in the "crime" as well.  If they catch me, i'll face it with dignity.
The reason i'd like to skip this class is because all we have to do is just reading
some basic c programming text in our web browser. Of course I still have a lot to
learn, but the place is simply not ideal for it.

I think you're mistaking glibc with glib. Glib and gtk+ relies on glibc for wide
character support. Upgrading glib shouldn't break your japanese i think.
If you get "locale not supported by glibc" or similar messages when you start up
gjiten or other gtk programs then all you need is the ja locales. Most distros have
this in the glibc package, mandrake 7.0 has it seperately. Read the gjiten
documentation on how to get the japanese locales.


Sorry about my all-in-one mail.
