atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x7a on isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: This is an XFree86 bug. It shouldn't access hardware directly.

Does anybody get this at all on their 2.6 Linux systems? I get it all the
time and have just dismissed it, but now I'm curious if anyone has bothered
to figure out why it happens.
Also, I've just got ahold of a Gmail account, but I haven't been able to
decide what to do with it. Does anyone else have a similar dilemma? ;-)

Good afternoon, My question is...
I setup an Internet server with debian the lastest version, I also configure
a squid proxy 2.4 estable6 with squidGuard as redirector, a dhcp, a dns, and

client in a workstation within my lan and get the email from the external
server or send email with the external server.
What is happening - Run send/recieve email messages in Outlook with the
right configuration and it sends a "Conection Refused by the Server" or
"Conection Timeout".I understand that maybe what I am looking for is a pop3
and smtp poxy server, nevertheless I install pop3.proxy and smtp.porxy
servers in my linux box an it does not retrieve or send the email from
workstation to the external server. I configure fetchmail too an it work but
within the server, if I try to get email from a workstation it crash.
What I already did -
1. I already run tcpdump in the eth where the internet conection is (In my
