[Cooker] Beta 2 for 8.2...console mode

2002-02-23 Thread Brent Miller

When I am at work... I usually boot my mandrake installation into KDE and 
check email, write up reports, browse the webetc.  But when I am ready 
to do development, I press ctrl+alt+F1 to switch over to a full mode console 
session so I can work with emacs in a full screen environment.legacy, I 
know...but all the developers I know do this too.

In cooker 8.2 beta 2, I have noticed the Mandrake developers have added a 
white vga border on the left and upper sides of a full-console session.  
This not only reduces real-estate when working in full-console mode, but the 
white boarder is very hard on the eyes...making it almost impossible to work 
in.

Now this boarder is fine for when the system is booting up, but not for 
working in.

Please, please, please remove this boarder!

Thanks,
