At least last time I tried. Pcvt can be compiled with a more "VT220"-like keyboard layout or a more "normal" so called "HP"-like keyboard layout. For the compile options look at the descriptions in file pcvt_conf.h. In the "regular" pcvt distribution there are 2 files describing the above layouts, they are Keyboard.VT and Keyboard.HP respectively, i hope they made it into the FreeBSD source tree - you'll find everything you need to now about vt switching in this doc-files. Anyway it should always be possible to use the standard X keystroke CTL-ALT-F(x) in pcvt to switch screens with both compile options. hellmuth -- Hellmuth Michaelis hm@altona.hamburg.com Hamburg, Europe (A)bort, (R)etry, (I)nstall BSD ?
