Hi,
I'm the current maintainer of kmscon, a linux userspace terminal,
that aims
to replace fbcon.
It should be the default in the upcoming Fedora 45 release.
thanks (I don't see it as default in rawhide -- when might that
happen?)
It just got merged last night:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/redhat-systemd-presets/pull-
request/3
I see redhat-systemd-presets-102-2.fc45.noarch in my updated rawhide
machine,
the kmscon package is dropped from the list (and the console is
still "linux").
Yes the preset is applied on new installation, if you are updating an
existing rawhide install, it will stay on fbcon.
to enable kmscon, you need to run this:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected]
/etc/systemd/system/[email protected]
sudo systemctl restart kmsconvt@tty3
I did that, but still had to enable the service.
That let me test it, and complete the terminal description.
I made these changes (mine on the left):
comparing kmscon to kmscon.
