Has any one looked at the NIC internet appliance? www.thinknic.com
I am looking for someone to help make some modifications to the embedded OS.
The system boots and runs off a CD. I have one if anyone wants to look at
it.

Subject: startx
Message-ID: <>

I just recently had the need to start a new console (ctrl-alt-f2) and run
another X session. I needed an 8 bit display and just wanted to toggle
between them with ctrl-alt-f7 and f8. startx has the display hard coded
to 0 on this RH 6.2 box. I had to edit it to handle different display's.
Did I miss something or is this really what RH expects users to do?
