I'de imagine it is not really a bug but a lack of support for vfte to use the vc's when you are in vesa mode. vfte might not be able to handle this new mode. The fte maintainer is working to release a fte-slang package which doesn't use the virtual console device so it should still work with this (plus it isn't suid root :) -- ----- -- - -------- --------- ---- ------- ----- - - --- -------- Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian GNU/Linux UnixGroup Admin - Jordan Systems Inc.
