I'm using the iucvtty method, and the reason I chose to specify lnxhvc0 as
the terminal ID there is because that is the default when using the connect
command from ts-shell.

It works fine... those terminal identifiers don't mean anything, they're
just a way of identifying what to run. I admit it's a bit misleading, which
is why I commented it in /etc/inittab. :-)

I've only just got this all working in the last few days, and there are a
number of changes/enhancements I'd like to see. :-)

Is this stuff open source? Or how/where do I make suggestions?

Cheers,
