Have a look at kernel config option CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE. Disabling that might do what you want. You may want to enable CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE, so that you can still get the messages if you connect a terminal to the serial port. (I guess disabling CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE should have the same effect as not having a VGA card - which would automatically use the serial port if CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE is set - but I'm not sure.) //David Olofson --- Programmer, Reologica Instruments AB .- M A I A -------------------------------------------------. | Multimedia Application Integration Architecture | | A Free/Open Source Plugin API for Professional Multimedia | `----------------------------> http://www.linuxdj.com/maia -' .- David Olofson -------------------------------------------. | Audio Hacker - Open Source Advocate - Singer - Songwriter | `-------------------------------------> http://olofson.net -' -- [rtl] --- To unsubscribe: echo "unsubscribe rtl" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] OR echo "unsubscribe rtl <Your_email>" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- For more information on Real-Time Linux see: http://www.rtlinux.org/
