| |
Hi,
I'm using 2.1.111 with standard console support, eg. no fbcon stuff enables. I notice the following bugs/differences from 2.0.x and 2.1.106 text mode consoles:
1) I can _blank_ the console with "find ." in /usr/src/linux. The operation takes about 1 sec to complete (when cached). If I press up arrow then return to fire off repeated "find ." commands _before_ the previous one has completed, my console blanks! Restores when I alt-f<something different>
2) On my system, Alt-F8 is a non-existant console. When I'm on a valid text console and press Alt-F8 (or F9, etc.) my text cursor stops blinking, but the screen remains on the original tty. Screwy.
3) I appear to have _much_ less pages of scrollback with shift-pageup.
Cheers Chris
