[nos-bbs] JNOS TTY console - No Visual

[Bob Tenty]

I should check your apt log again Bill because there are maybe some more 
packages upgraded
like your video driver, etc

I had also issues in the past with video drivers, esp settings like 
Maiko found on Internet.
Sometimes it just can be resolved by rolling back the driver or changing 
settings for that driver.
It could be just a bug in that package or in a script for it.

Anyhow good luck and don't forget to file a bug report  there.
