Little things to remember
Up to six domains that should be appended to hostnames when resolving them can be defined in /etc/resolv.conf with the search entry (though not more than 255 characters).

Furthermore, why can’t I tell X.org about my german keyboard and mouse (it has a wheel + extra buttons) and let it autodetect all other …
