Which GUI are you referring to? I removed all the X11 stuff.. Also, one time I booted, it had some problems starting some service, and that time the monitor stayed off.. had to ssh in to resolve it..That may indicate that someting in the sysinit shuts off the monitor at the start of a script, then turns it back on at the end.. -- Cheers, Morten :wq
