My /etc/inittab has lines that look like this: 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1 -I '^[c^[[?17;55;248c' This gives me a nice red non-blinking cursor. No problems with vi whatsoever. Of course, this only works on the console, but for my terminal windows, I can set these values in resource or configuration files. So, all of this is a user-space problem. No need to complicate the kernel code.

Re: [PATCH] bsd-style cursor
included a patch against 2.4.0-test9 (should apply against latest but haven't checked) which adds the config option to have a bsd-style cursor in VT's by default. I was hoping it might be considered for inclusion so that I don't have to patch it in myself every time :-) How about placing echo '\033[?17;120c' In one of your startup scripts. This will give you this nice BSD cursor you like. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
