Been there ..
Other people have reported weirdness with NCSA Telnet on an XT before.
If I put the VGA card back in and it works, I'll have it narrowed down.
But that wouldn't make any sense since it works for my 8088w/CGA and the
two cards don't conflict...
The only lines in my config file I can think of that may relate are:
(config.tel:)
video=cga # type of video screen
# Legal values for video are:
# cga,ega,pga,no9,hercules,ega43,vga50
# Default is ega
bios=no # don't use slow BIOS screen access
# bios=yes to reduce flicker on cga
# bios=yes for TopView or Windows
# Default is no
Couldn't hurt to turn on "consoledebug=1" too...

NCSA Telnet *was* running on before I put the CGA card
in. (I had a
Cirrus Logic VGA card in it yesterday.) Now NCSA Telnet is hanging
on startup after reading it's config file.
Check the config file; there is a video mode line IIRC.
