Now I wanted to get rid of that serial cable stuff and set up
OF to use my GFX card an ATI Rage128 and although a month ago I always got 
that message STRING TOO LONG it worked this time...

I suggest to start with a / so here it looks like
/bandit@F2000000/ATY,Rage128y@D

it works

but if I want to set input-device to kdb or keyboard it again only works 
throught serial cable? 

What the hell, OF is joking with me...

It I set input-device back to ttya I got OF on that ATI running again...

Any ideas?

Andreas
