I don't think you need VESA for any of these...certainly not the SC_HISTORY_SIZE. You do need it for SC_PIXEL_MODE to get more modes on systems that lack that capability (like my T43 laptop). If you can set it to a mode that makes you happy, those commands should work, but some systems offer very few modes without VESA. The T43 offers four...all 80 characters wide from 25 to 60 lines. :-( -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
