Let's say I'm not debugging an X server :-) As I said earlier, my prior concern is not toasting my 19" monitor (it's a fixed frequency) in the time between bootup and the start of the X server. I'd gladly use a serial console, but: 1) From what keyboard does the X take its input once I've started X from the serial console? 2) How do I keep my undisciplined VGA (Diamond 968) from sending a signal to the monitor until I tell it to? :-) I had in mind changing the address on the card (don't ask me how!) and keeping a standard VGA 14" on the other adapter. -- - [ regnauld@tetard.frmug.fr.net / +48.8N+2.3E / +33 1 4507 9391 / Sol 3 ] - - [ regnauld@freenix.fr / FreeBSD 2.x / ] - "Le schtroumpf est à l'homme ce que le bleu est au billard" - F.Berjon
