Nope, I tried killing off all terminals (one running the other just there)
in /etc/ttys, but no luck.

It is in fact linked to psm0 and always has been. I think that a big
problem is that psm0 wants the same memory addr as sc0 (syscons driver
0x60).
I change the mem addr of psm0 to 0x40 but that just crashes the machine
before it even gets a chance to boot (note: 0x40 does not conflict with
anything ) Can you recommend another mem addr for psm0? I am using it on
irq 12 (irq 5 is taken by ed0) 
Please tell me that there is a better way than having to boot from a dos
disk (which I don't have) and then use the logitech installer disk (which
is far away) to set the irq/mem addr of the device manually:)
OR! I could just install the 961008-SNAP and hope  my tribulations are
vanquished. But I'd like to avoid that untill I get this one working.
Thanks in advance.
