I've got few *BSD reports that say this is not working. So, I think that this is related to LINUX and its LINUX TEXTMODE CONSOLE. ($TERM=linux) can someone test this on different kernel versions ? it works with linux v2.4.x what about older/newer versions ? (BTW, for me works even I'm I'm ssh-ing ... I only have linux so I can't test any other combinations) Best regards, ------ Doru Petrescu KappaNet - Senior Software Engineer E-mail: pdoru () kappa ro LINUX - the choice of the GNU generation On Sat, 8 Dec 2001, Michael Greenberg wrote:
