The following symptoms of ill behavior were present on a previous AMD system with 8.0-RC3; my alterations to the kernel consisted solely of omitting parts of no use on the present system. gv first: Page numbers aren't recognized, so you can only go forward. After the last page, a blank page is presented. kernel or perhaps X, is next: From an xterm, I typed ctrl-alt-F1 to look at something. Upon return to the xterm by alt-F9, I discover "0~" as if I'd typed it in, which wasn't there before. "cat|od -c" reveals it's (to quote): "033 [ 2 0 ~ \n" . I don't remember what that does, but I can't find anything changed in X. Avid hobbyist fan of FreeBSD since 386BSD Chuck Bacon - crtb@cape.com
