Do I first telnet in CLI mode, then switch to another terminal (a VGA 
terminal in my case since I also have MDA) and type Xvesa? On which 
terminal and when do I export DISPLAY?  I can't do it from Xvesa.  Do I do 
it after telnetting in CLI mode on the first VT?

Please specify the details and I will try this with serial connection and 
pppd.  Thanks, this sounds fun.  So we could BOTH run opera on the same 
phone line and go to two different sites on two different monitors?  Or 
run two X programs full-screen at the same time?

Can someone tell me which linux program I need to convert between tiff and 
gif and jpeg?  xv and zgv did not seem to do that.  My DOS image viewer 
pictview views and also converts.  ImageMagick?
