Hello All,
Where is the information concerning how to change console fonts?
I'm using SVGATextMode which works OK but I don't understand how to select font
faces and font sizes to use with the various text modes.

Yes, this is from the O'Reilly book "Using csh & tcsh". I use this at

Good question. I've never used tcsh, but I would guess so. The key
thing to note is this escape sequence which changes the titlebar:

Howdy Mike!
Networking doesn't use devices in /dev.
As Root try:
ifconfig
You'll see that the device is there and has the values shown in
/var/log/messages.
If that's the case, then everything should work. Give it a try and let us
