Bing! Rings a bell in me. No longer supported by newer pcvt's either. It's old compatibility cruft from pccons, and pcvt used to implement the old pccons model for X11 support in order to ease the transition. We've recently decided that it will no longer be #ifdef'ed in by default for the next pcvt release (which is to be out RSN). You should advise Xinside to use #define KDMKTONE _IO('K', 8 /*, int */) instead. It's supported by both, syscons and pcvt. It's the SVRx compatible command, so they should have the code already handy for its implementation. -- 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. ;-)
