You mean several columns are duplicated and the whole 80 columns are not
visible? I've had that problem, and don't know how to fix it. Last I
checked, I don't have the problem anymore. I did before I reinstalled
everything (forced to by a stupid error on my part).

I have a 765D, but it may be similar enough. My config.sys has the
following lines for the warm swapping:
BASEDEV=IBM1FLPY.ADD /A:0 /FORCE:2 /U:0 /F:1.44MB /U:1 /F:1.44MB
BASEDEV=IBM1S506.ADD /A:0 /U:1 /ATAPI /FORCE
Works for me.

The docs seem to say that RediSafe is a suspend mode that will become a
hibernate mode if power is lost.
