ok, I expected something like that.  I guessed that a non-interactive
session is used.  I could not find this in the code. Therefore my test.
But, as you say, my guess was wrong.

FYI: 10.04 had a similar motd, but it worked with Tesla (same version).

This is definitely not my problem.  I don't have the two motd's.  Also I
have here two machines, upgraded from 10.04 (worked before) and a
complete fresh set up.  Same problem on both.

This is doing the trick for the moment.  Clear straight forward idea,
I'm becoming old, that I didn't had this thought.

I can send you more information, if you need something to solve the real
problem.  I like the idea to help this great app.

Ciao,
