        What's lkml?? The Linux Kernel Mailing List that Google finds?? 
If so, I better watch out. Kernels are way over my head ....

        Anyway, I tried simply giving that whole alias command, copied 
and pasted, as user. It did help. It got rid of the gray background, and 
enlarged the terminal a little.

        So I tried two or three more times, increasing the numbers, up to 
15 and 14 instead of 11 and 10 -- but didn't see any discernible further 
change.

        What am I missing??
