There is a gumstix-x11-image which is the minimal config. Then a gumstix-x11-32mb-image which will fit on a verdex XL6P - add more stuff.

I use the gumstix-x11-32mb-image and I can open the terminal window and the behavior I described in the previous e-mail. Marc > -----Original Message----- > From: gum...@li...
