I am starting X windows with the startx shript until I am sure everything is configured correctly (here at home I miss the ability to telnet in and kill the server only when I screw up the grabs). Anyway, xconsole says it can not open /dev/console or some such. I hate having to exit Xwin just to look at the virtual console. What do I need to do? xterm -C also does not work. Thanx in advance. E-Mail appreciated. Rip Toren rpt@miles.sso.loral.com
