Ok, thanks. I added the al & dl entries (the console driver supported them, they just weren't in the termcap file) and now everything works. Might be a good idea to have gbII check for the required termcap capablities and do a fatal exit (with informative text!) if they don't exist. Might help people like me who (re)compile the thing N+1 times thinking it's a compile enviroment glitch :-) //Petri
