oh.
Well the box is now running head/kybd/mouseless, at init 3, and I am in
looking at a gnome desktop.
I can make notes from all the other responses, get on with work at hand
and later go back to get a 'better' remote console tool. But one
advantage of vnc is how fast I configured it; on an install, I can be
hooked to a head/kybd/mouse, quickly get vnc working, move the system,
then work on whatever else is needed (including installing a better
remote console tool).
