Yeah, it does function as a good base. ;) I mean, seen that ubuntu store crap and the amazon search in the search box thing? Nope! I never got that far. Ten minutes trying to get real work done under Unity was enough to make me stop dead in the middle of my day and move to Mint. Unity still makes absolutely no sense. ;) Why did they think switching to it was a good idea... -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA

Out-of-the-box xterm works reasonably well, and all in all I'm pretty happy, but I have loved EDT since I was a kid, and not having a full keypad sucks. gnome-terminal from GNOME2 or GNOME3? GNOME2, the useful one. ;) Technically it's MATE Terminal, as I jumped ship from Ubuntu to Mint when the Ubuntu guys started getting "big head" problems and messed everything up. I love the idea of MATE, GNOME3 is a disaster, and continuing GNOME2 is a great thing. Mind, on Linux I just use Openbox anyway... Do you have any specific advice for xterm resource settings etc for better compatibility? I'm less worried about fonts...I'm comfortable wrangling them, been using X since the X10R4 (no typo there) days, but I'm not too concerned with maintaining font appearance compatibility. It's more keypad stuff, and functionality needed to drive EDT in a high-efficiency way. That's going back quite a ways. ;) Yes, sadly. But in my heart and mind, I'm still 22. ;) -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA

Just enable DECnet on the relevant interfaces, be they physical network interfaces or tunnel pseudo-interfaces, by setting a decnet cost on them. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
