No no, imagine this scenario.  My falcon boots to a login prompt.  I ssh 
in from a remote host and start xaaes from there.  So my falcon is at a 
console prompt.  Once I start xaaes, I will then open up a toswin2 
shell.  At this point I will have a drive prompt.  if I type "ls" and 
hit enter, the drive prompt will then list the contents of my user 
folder.  What I also see though is a prompt for "ls"'s password in the 
console view.  The keystrokes are going to BOTH places.  This is 
definitely related to CTPCI.  Didn't start happening until I started 
trying to make it work, though I will try to make it work in videl again 
for test.
