I tried both, both worked ok. with the module you wind up with something like /dev/mono to which you can direct output (Now I wonder if I should have tried putting a getty on it). Multimon works but I sometimes get some trash on either display. It's nice to be able to run gdb on a seprate display. ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Al Black gblack@nol.net
