I guess you meant virtual terminals and not xterms, which are quite different things... In /etc/ttys, you can set more virtual consoles by addings lines like: ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure # Virtual terminals ttyv1 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure ttyv2 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure ... ttyv ... The generic kernel allows by default up to 16 virtual consoles. Any correction is welcome, because I think I am missing the point here (maybe) :) Spidey > >Thanks > > > >Dave > > What X runs at startup is set in your .xinitrc.
