and I noticed at the bottom that it said the file was in [TEXTMODE].
Well, never seeing that before, I looked to see if I could change the mode

A mouse would be useful even if you never ran an X session. gpm gives you text
copy and paste functions in the command line environment. I ran Linux with no

As far as configuring in terminal mode it's not that difficult. I
I have a yamaha opl3-sax soundboard and I can't configure it to work with
