I'm not sure if this is the only occasion where the above error message could hit. I will have to look into the XFree86 code for this (which i don't have online right now). > I didn't have XSERVER in my config file (though UCONSOLE) since > as you stated syscons doesn't need it any more.

Hmm, well, right. Anyway, you're normally no longer supposed to get the standalone pcvt distribution, since i'm maintaining the code within the regular tree now. Expect an update to 3.30 RSN, although only very minor bits have been changed since the pcvt version that is in 2.0.5R. (Ok, i accept that getting the standalone version is much easier for you than for anybody else. :) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
