Thanks Andreas,
When I first installed the mgetty packages I was looking for vgetty. It
is not in the packages I got from "apt-get install mgetty (fax, voice,
doc, etc.). I will try compiling from source to see if that produces
the vgetty binary needed. This is strange though as I looked through
the reported bugs and nobody else seems to have come across this :-|
Thanks again,
Jim Seymour
