Hi,

since the TGA console code was changed (somewhere in the
1.4<letter somewhere in the 2nd half of the alphabet> line)
I have 2 annoying problems:

First, and more important:
I use bash as shell. If on the new console I type some chars
then use ctrl-a to go back to the start of the line and try to
insert some chars, _the_whole_line_ (i,e. also chars to the
left of the cursor) is moved one character position to the right.
It's also not done 100% correctly, so after a few inserted
chars the complete line is more or less unreadable...

Second,
if I enter and leave X, the screen is set to black chars
on white bg, and I don't know how to change it back.

I'm willing to help to resolve these problems, but
with my current knowledge of NetBSD internals I
will probably only be able to test patches ...

regards,
chris
