Are you running X on your FreeBSD box, or are you working from the raw console? When you say 'connected', what do you mean precisely? Telnet? Precisely what do you mean by "Keyboard setting, vi, and screen display cannot operate poperly"? Does the display get confused, or is it just that erase and kill don't work? -- Bob Bishop (0118) 977 4017 international code +44 118 rb@gid.co.uk fax (0118) 989 4254 between 0800 and 1800 UK
