You can have more than those six: I often have syslogd logging to tty12, I'm currently running two "X -query number" and have a regular login screen as wall on my Pentium III "X-terminal." Now I've discovered vnc I'm really going to town. It's the best solution I've found yet for getting a Linux desktop on your Winders computer. All you need is a Java-capable browser: even Internet Exploder will do. -- Cheers John.
