[Opensim-dev] mono *.exe crashes if screen is smaller than created...

[Sean Hennessee]

Note added to existing Mantis noting that adding "-gui=true" does not 
fix the problem when the screen size has been reduced between screen 
connections. I am using OpenSim release 9960, on CentOS 5, Mono JIT 
compiler version 2.4.

Is there a simple, very basic, text only console that doesn't attempt to 
position the cursor to non-existing locations in the terminal?

We have different people connecting to 'screen', (at different times), 
from different computers to upload oars/xmls, which is why the terminal 
size changes between screen attachments.

Peace,
Sean
