The one Ethan Benson suggested is actually what I looked for,
unfortunaty the man page on my system ('98) does not contain this
option.

Sorry, no, I tried that in previous times. After reading your message
and thinking of 'background' - I tried "startx &". This time when
switching to the terminal back and entering "fg" - reaction:
startx >/dev/console 2>%1
- only  using crtl+Z gave out:
[1]+ Stopped   startx >/dev/console 2>%1
<systemprompt>

Oh, thats a pity. I thought it may be a sort of java acceleration -
does it mean that using this kernel option only avoids using the
binfmt_misc module when loading java apps?

Quite the one Ethan Benson suggested (script <filename>), only without
triggering.
I guess there's nothing more useful than this command.
