Further, on shutdown the console is garbaged. I have no idea if this problem happens or not if you fail to start an X server. It may not. >How-To-Repeat: Build a kernel with either of those two options enabled, boot it, and run an X server. Then switch to a different vty, and observe that you either get garbage on the screen, or that no characters are printed. >Fix: The work-around is to not enable those two options. I haven't had time to look into fixing the problem, but will if I find the time. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
