    Hi, I have a few other questions as a new RH9 user
    that I hoped someone could help me answer.

    - I'd like to use the standard xterm and not the
    'terminal' program. However, I'd like to have
    white-on-black instead of black-on-white. Is there a
    program that can be used to configure the xterm
    properties, or do I have to use an Xdefaults file? If
    so, does someone know what the parameters are for
    configuring font colors, sizes, and background?

    - I previously used WindowMaker and like it a lot
    because it was simple. I had ALT-F1 programmed to
    switch to the first virtual terminal, ALT-F2 for the
    second, etc. I've figured out how to do this in RH9
    using their GNOME/KDE combo, but it seems to require
    mouse focus to be on a window before switching, then
    carries that window with it to the next virtual
    terminal. How can I change this? It's very annoying.

    Thanks,
    Fred
