Thanks to all who helped me with my SATA and mdraid problem - I'll answer when I've finished rebuilding the system and can reply more comfortably and comprehensively.
Meanwhile I've another two small problems - how to control the virtual terminal; its scrollback buffer and setterm codes (I'm not talking about X here). Somewhere in the documents I read that the size of the scrollback buffer can be declared in a kernel command, something like "fbcon=scrollback:1024k. When I do that though, the kernel boots ok but scrollback is disabled. Secondly, another FAQ says to send setterm codes to /dev/vc/X, but since (I assume) the rise of udev those devices don't exist any more. Does anyone here know how to play these small tricks? -- Rgds Peter. ________________________________________________ Message sent using UebiMiau 2.7.2 -- [email protected] mailing list
