I entirely disagree with this. I use multiple virtual terminals every day but would have no idea how to go about setting up any more. I'm sure it's Google'able, but I'd rather not have to hunt down the command. > On the other side, if you are a newbie, you will possibly never use a > virtual terminal. I also disagree with this. There were quite a few times when I was a noob that I needed to use multiple virtual terminals (for example, when my graphics card drivers failed, two instances of w3m in two vterms for looking up help, a terminal for compiling the drivers and a fourth for any other commands I had to run). This would have been much, much harder had there been just two vterms. Best wishes -- David Futcher Ubuntu MOTU Developer <[email protected]> <[email protected]>
