No worries. :-) My scratchbox is using a Hercules monitor, so i will complain loudly if something breaks there. And i know of various sites that depend on the serial consoles. I would even be tempted to do a stab at serial console installation, but i still need a good idea how to `switch screens' there. You know, we need 4 different screens that can be switched, one for the menus, one for debug & console messages, one for the EHS, and one for PPP. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
