You could of course also do something like "/etc/init.d/console-client stop" in the console client... You mean, deco stop console-client. :-) I suppose that could work, sending SIGTERM or some such. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? C

I'd like to see the console-client fixed so that it not blank the screen etc., until there is at least one tty setup. A better solution is to actually fix console-client to just show what was on the screen before (and as such, allow for messages from the Mach console to be shown). But this
