What were you trying to do?
Log in, [and my file server was down, so of course it asked me if I wanted
to create a temporary mail directory]
What's wrong:
It prompted me in the CONSOLE WINDOW!!!!! What am I supposed to do? Type
in the console window? It didn't wait for my answer, by the way.
What should have happened:
Perhaps it should prompt me in another window, like the startup xterm,
or something. Perhaps it should set up another window (questionable) or
perhaps allow input to the console window, together with cursor,etc.
(even more questionable).
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
