hello,
I've switched from kernel 1.2.13 -> 1.3.69 and all seems to work except
something with the console...
1) this is not really a problem :-) but when going multiuser (/etc/rc.d/rc.M)
I've got in my script the command 'setterm -blank 8' and I've got the error
message 'could not find linux entry in termcap' or something like that.
In the previous versions of the kernel (at least till 1.2.13) the name
of the console wasn't 'linux' (but something like 'console' I suppose).
2) Now my problem. After switching from 1.2.13 -> 1.3.69, I can't get the
extended characters (I've got the ISO_8859_1 extended charmap defined)
anymore !!! Instead of having my nice accentuated chars, I got some
greek letters or some other mess :-(
BUT when switching kernel, I haven't changed any configuration file
(~/.inputrc, /etc/profile, ~/.profile, etc...).

SO, WHAT's the solution to solve this __strange__ error ?!
thanks!
