Speaking of names... The word "console" is used to mean three different things in the kernel. Last time I had to understand the console code (because it wasn't showing on some device) that didn't help. But it was a 2.4 kernel 2 years ago so I didn't submit a patch :-) It would be a sensible though boring cleanup to change all the "VC" (virtual console) stuff to use the name "VT" (virtual terminal) consistently. -- Jamie -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
