hi guys, i upgraded to rh7.1 from 6.2, the problem is that my backspace key doesnt work when i start x. it works alright when x is not running how do i set this particular key right.
i want to download only mail from this list using pine from my pop server. how do i write a filter rule for doing this while ignoring all the other mails i.e. i dont want them to be downloaded. Navin

/etc/X11/XF86Config:
Section "Keyboard"
Make sure XkbDisable is commented out.
Also, check your termcap entries. I had this same problem with Gnome in RH6.0, and I fixed it, but don't remember how. I know XkbDisable was one step, but I'm sure there were at least two more.

Create ~/.Xmodmap file and add the following line to it
keycode 0x16 = BackSpace
This will fix the problem.
Alternatively, you can write the following command in your .xinitrc file
xmodmap -e "keycode 0x16 = BackSpace"

When you start pine, go to Setup, Rules, Filters. You should be able to figure it out from there. (I use pine 4.30)
In this particular case, fetchmail won't work because it doesn't filter mail on subject, only size.
