Just qdsg. The problem is that if you are running xcons, and a console message comes in, for some reason it completely screws up your entire display (to the point of being unusable). The temporary workaround is to NOT run xcons, let the message come directly to the console, and then xrefresh to clean up your display. $%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$% Gary Faulkner Systems Programmer - Networking National Center for Supercomputing Applications University of Illinois BITNET: GRF@UIUCVMD Internet: garyf@mehlville.ncsa.uiuc.edu Disclaimer: If I've stated an opinion, consider it (C) 1989 by me.
