Hi

I've used VT520's with normal PS/2 PC keyboards as well as with
VT-keyboards.
They both work , but on a pc keyboard the special key's like "setup" are
a bit awkward.

These VT's are multisession , IIRC, you can run 4 sessions over 1 serial
line by using
a special key sequence.

Does anyone know if this can be made to work for linux too ? Or do we
need a DEC Terminal Server for
this feature ?
