I used to r= un=20 startx from the console - now run xdm. So it may have been that it worked= =20 back then because I would scroll up before leaving the console. However, I= =20 seem to recall that it also worked with VT12. May be I'm wrong, not sure. =2D-=20 Regards, Mick --nextPart2021595.Sd5cu4V9gi Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkrot6oACgkQVTDTR3kpaLbGPgCgo8lhSP3pLGzUOlYcaHJxKysf PM4AnjXzqUSxAukT6CofkmZTp/zWWZaS =fssL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2021595.Sd5cu4V9gi--
