There are lines in the sim.ini file which say:

        ; Separate the simulated PDP11 Console from the Simh command window
        SET CONSOLE TELNET=10000
        ;
        ; Open a separate terminal window for the system console.
        ; This will simulates a 132-column hardcopy terminal like the LA36.
        ECHO 
*********************************************************************
        ECHO *  Opening a new terminal window for the PDP-11 System Console ... 
 *
        ;! xterm -sl 10000 -sb -aw -j -T 'PDP-11 Console' -e 'telnet localhost 
10000' &
        ! gnome-terminal -t 'PDP-11 Console' --geometry=132x36 -e 'telnet 
localhost 10000' &

The last two lines attempt to start a new terminal window with a telnet session 
to the console port of the simulator (the first being commented out).  These 
are somewhat system specific commands.  You can create a separate window and in 
that window execute:  "telnet localhost 10000".  The reset of the commands will 
probably work.

If it doesn't work, It will help if you actually provided ALL of the output 
produced.

Good Luck.
