Not really. When I change the rate in an xterm it's changed for all the xterms, all new xterms, and all tty's. I have the same results when making the change from a tty. Are you issuing the command as root? I don't know if it works as a user. jc -- Jeff Coppock Systems Engineer Diggin' Debian Admin and User -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
