Keyboard in testing is now configured in "/etc/default/keyboard" file.

OK. What should I put in there? - There is exactly what my xorg.conf
keyboard settings are. - Before it did work, not - not. - I have no idea
what to add more there.

If you are using "squeeze", "/etc/default/keyboard.conf" should contain
the same settings you had specified in your "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" for the
keyboard:

#xorg.conf
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us,de"
Option "XkbVariant" "winkeys"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"

Now in the form:

#keyboard.conf
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us,de"
XKBVARIANT="winkeys"
XKBOPTIONS="grp:ctrl_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"

Don't forget to remove (or comment #) the old settings from your
"xorg.conf" so they don't collide.

You can use the tweak of "~/.asoundrc" to select the preferred sound
card:

http://alsa.opensrc.org/.asoundrc#Default_PCM_device

I have already tried that and a player said that I have no pcm file for
the device number in /dev/snd, and indeed, I have:

You have to run "aplay -l", it should display the all your outputs, for
example:

***
sm01@stt008:~$ aplay -L
default:CARD=Intel
HDA Intel, ALC883 Analog
Default Audio Device
front:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
HDA Intel, ALC883 Analog
Front speakers
surround40:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
HDA Intel, ALC883 Analog
4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers
surround41:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
HDA Intel, ALC883 Analog
4.1 Surround output to Front, Rear and Subwoofer speakers
surround50:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
HDA Intel, ALC883 Analog
5.0 Surround output to Front, Center and Rear speakers
surround51:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
HDA Intel, ALC883 Analog
5.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Rear and Subwoofer speakers
surround71:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
HDA Intel, ALC883 Analog
7.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Side, Rear and Woofer speakers
iec958:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
HDA Intel
IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output
null
Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
***

And then you can put in your "~./asoundrc" file:

***
pcm.!default front:Intel
***

In the avobe line I am choosing the Intel card (now I only have one
installed) as my default pcm card.

Farther, I do not know what to do. - May I have to file up a bug report
against it? - But against what? - I know that testing is not the same as
stable, but may others can meet the same problem upgrading froim lenny
to squeeze.

Try fisrt by following the alsasound tip and check the output of the
aplay -L command.

First, I would try with no "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" file and let xorg to
set the card automatically.

I've tried - same result beside some other things - but no 3D
acceleration.

Do ATI cards need a firmaware to load 3D extensions? Are you using a
stock kernel or a custom or backports one?

I have free and non-free firmwares - both set to be upgraded w/ testing
repo - but I guess only was actually upgraded.

I use the latest backported kernel.

This was the errors you were getting:

***
(EE) AIGLX error: r300 exports no extensions (/usr/lib/dri/r300_dri.so:
undefined symbol: __driDriverExtensions)
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering
(II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable
(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so failed
(/usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory)
(EE) GLX: could not load software renderer
(II) GLX: no usable GL providers found for screen 0
***

Sounds like Xorg cannot load some files for enabling 3D acceleration...
let's see, "swrast_dri.so" is included in package "libgl1-mesa-dri", do
you have it installed? Can you locate that library installed in the
mentioned path? :-?
