Hi all. Finally after a year of not having a machine I could run Linux on I finally have one. It's a P200, and I installed Slackware 10.1 with kernel 2.4.29 and Speakup 2.0. the machine has only 16 MB of ram and 1.9 GB drive space, but I hope to remedy that in the next few weeks. I do have a question but I'm not sure if it's Slackware specific or something else. Before I could use alt f1 through alt f6 to select up to 6 consoles simultaneously. this seems to have gone away. Is it because of low memory or has there been some significant change with the bash shell or what? I can see in the boot process that it is going multi-user, so init is running at level 3, and everything else seems to run ok. I like some of the changes in Speakup too. the machine isn't on the net, that's a few weeks away too, until I can get a network card. I need to get back into the swing of this, but I've forgotten a few things, so could somebody update me on any major changes over the past year or so? thanks.
