For example If I try to change ttyS1 to ttyS0, the cursor comes out with a blank space after ttyS1. So it looks like this: "ttyS1 " When I hit delete it looks like I have to hit delete again to delete the 1. But if I hit delete once, hit 0 so that it looks like "ttyS10" and save it, then it will use ttyS0. I just figured something was up with my monitor because it's this crazy old laptop. -Mike
