Well, it was just a dark shot. I haven't used dial-up for several
years, but had similar problems with two secondary shell providers.

it *does* look like the first char has been dropped.

It is probably (??) a combination of the Riva TNT2 card, kernel and
nvidia driver. What I really don't understand is that it worked with
the 5336 driver for ~5 months before trouble. The 4620 driver has
given me back additional X sessions, correct (or seemingly) logon to
level 5 and jumped from 89 fps to 1200 fps in kde and Xfce. That's a
new wrinkle. NOTE: fps were down in the 5336 driver also.
