Thanks but no, it has nothing to do with my problem. I use telinit 5 as default runlevel, but still I like to do some things in a full-screen text console; so I do ALT-Ctrl-F1 (or F2-6 ) and log into a text console. When working on different versions of tex documents with vi, opened on different text consoles, I like to be able to highlight a piece of text with the mouse on one console and paste it into another; this needs gpm, but in 9.0 it won't work. Everything under X works fine, including KDE. Besides, this is not an upgrade, it is a fresh installation over a completely reformatted series of partitions. On the same disk I still have my original 8.2 which I will definitively abandon once I get everything in 9.0 working smoothly. -- Michele Alzetta
