Hi again.

   We are using X11 on a megapel adapter. If I configure the PC-Simulator
outside of X for use within X, then everything is Ok. If for some reason
when I actually fire up the simulator one of my pre-configured devices is
not available, the simulator pops up it's configuration menu. 

   The fonts in Xterm do not provide support for line drawing (well, actually
the vt100 fonts do, but they're rediculously small on the megapel). The
menu is garbled, and while I can move the cursor around, I can not select
anything or exit from the program. The function keys don't work either.
This is very annoying. Any clues?

Thanks
Peter
