Boot and log in as none, which leaves you at a text % prompt (none doesn't get vga by default, for exactly this kind of thing). Run ed /rc/bin/termrc This will start the editor ed, editing /rc/bin/termrc, which will print a number on a line by itself. Type /aux.vga This will move to the line that starts aux/vga. It will print something like " aux/vga -m $monitor -l $vgasize". Then type a echo hwaccel off >/dev/vgactl . which will add the line "echo hwaccel off >/dev/vgactl" after the line you're currently looking at. Then type w q which will write the file and quit the editor. You should be back at a % prompt. Run fshalt to make sure the changes are on disk, and then you can reboot and log in as glenda. Russ
