And by "at stake" I meant "at fault", but my mind was rather elsewhere. Anyway, I found that through incredible patience I was able to eventually get a username/password prompt and start rio, which now works acceptably, considering I'm connecting to a New York server from Hawaii. Does anyone know why it would be taking so long to ask for authentication? I figure I'll go ahead and put "echo hwaccel off > /dev/vgactl" into /rc/bin/termrc, since I don't forsee any other terminals connecting in the near future, besides perhaps some more vmware ones. What differences could I expect to see if I was to try using a real machine with hwaccel turned off, anyway? Thanks so much; enjoying my new terminal :) John
