Update, you were right, there is no echo in THAT login screen.  If I type 
hard, and a bit slow (that kayboard has a custom fitted swarf cover that 
screws up my fat fingered typing) I can login and the rest I was able to 
fix.  No network, something had started WICD, killed that, and with no 
radio's to talk to, it edited /e/n/interfaces to label the enps0 as 
allow-hotplug. Put that back to auto and rebooted, its all fine and I 
spent much of an hour trying to fire a pair of crydom 40 amp 400 volt 
SSR's unsuccsessfully. I have a 12 pack of the HOYMK's so I guess I 
chisle the JBWeld holding the crydom's and try some Chinese clones. 
Unfunny thing is that I've already got a 6 pak of the Chinese versions 
working flawlessly in other machines. Some of them for years.

Anyway. its running. With no blanking. Fairly well I believe.

Thanks Andy.


Cheers, Gene Heskett
