Perry) Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Subject: trouble with virtual terms?? Date: 2 Jun 1994 17:52:58 GMT Organization: The Black Box, Houston, Tx (713) 480-2686 Lines: 11 Message-ID: <2sl69q$a5i@blkbox.blkbox.COM> NNTP-Posting-Host: blkbox.com X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I have just re-compiled my kernel under FreeBSD 1.1 and have added the option NCONS=8 to the kernel configuration. The man pages for screen says that Alt-F? will switch me to a new virtual screen. This is not working. Instead it appears that some fragment of a previous command gets grabbed instead. I would like to have virtual screens if possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been running FreeBSD 1.1 for less than 24 hours but I have 7 years of UNIX experience under Sys V. Please forgive me. John A. Perry - perry@blkbox.com
