Tony,

  I run Asterisk in verbose mode all of the time.  What changes did
you make (command line arguments, config files, etc).  I don't ever
have the problems that you are describing.

  As far as extra ttys - screen is included by default.  It is a much
more flexible and memory efficient way to support multiple ttys.  Are
you familiar with it?
