Hello, DSL is a great job. It would be nice to have a virtual console, to use the console and X at the same time. Thanks.

*ahem* We have a virtual console, don't we?

At least everytime I need to work on X and use the console for a while I launch rxvt from the fluxbox menu.

Maybe you are thinking about Konsole. That's a nice console for X, but it is too big. For what I need, rxvt does a good job.

It could be done by some init scripts...I read some book about init and deamon scripts for linux...uff 700 pages
