This, on top of the rest, finally confuses me: "though the windows running getty tend to get in the way." Are you talking about using the 'ua' with its multiple active windows, or just about using multiple gettys? I do *NOT* use the 'ua' at all - I just have three gettys running - and "Suspd"/"Rsume" does nothing for me. The only way I have been able to switch from window to window is by depressing the "Suspd" (NOT shifted), selecting a window, and depressing the "Enter" key. Granted, I haven't upgraded to 3.51 - I'm still running 3.5 - so, if you aren't talking about using the 'ua', perhaps therein lies the difference.
