Yes. This is a personal preference thing, and we already have
I agree. I think that more ttys is a bad idea, since each one takes
more memory as well (since the data space isn't shared). While this
is a small amount, it is a pain for lower memory systems.
I usually run three ttys myself (imp + root + spare), but it is a
matter of taste. Each time

I don't know, but as those are in the vast minority, its perhaps
OK to ask those folks to edit ttys to something more useful to them,
rather than the other way round. :-)

If you do make this change, make sure it's carefully documented in the
release notes. Otherwise we're going to get a lot of surprised I can no
longer get back to my X server after I switch away from it's.

This seems a lot like personal preferance to me, I for one don't like a
lot of tty's, because running getty on a bunch of ttys that I'm not going
to use is a waste of ram I usually keep F1-F3 as ttys, and make F4 run
kdm. I know I don't really have a say, but I'm sure everyone has his or

Seconded. Two ttys are enough for me. Many getty(8) processes usually
waste our process table

I do the opposite, and turn off five vty's to get just three [job
control works for me]. -- IMHO a personal like/dislike shouldn't be a
reason to
