Would that be possible?
right now i can think of two ways to make it enabled by default: 1) add 'device kbdmux' to the kernel config (or even make it required) 2) set kbdmux_load to "YES" somewhere in loader.* files (somewhat similar to acpi). with option (2) above it would be easy to disable, i.e. just do unset kdbmux_load at loader command prompt or loader.rc thanks, max > > Scott > > _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
