Hi there, I am already missing the Xterms. Where did the console go to? What about the xterm. I haven't been able to acess the comand line driven environment. Unless I use the ones provided by Gnome. Is this a new feature in 6.1. I have been noticing a strange behaviour of the X-windows since the install of Helios. Under Venus I was able to have the X-windows all the time startx command was issued. Now it is a kind of sometimes( it works and fails every now and then) situation. Often after startx I get a black screen with a big white enlightened rectangle which moves any time I move the mouse. My video card is an SiS Pro AGP 3D with 8MB on board. I have been using programmed clock for it and it worked for the last 6 months since Mandrake 5.3 to Mandrake 6.0 with no hassles). What could be wrong? Thanks Bernardo
