| |
I've just discovered a small problem I'm having with the console and Linux 2.0.
Problem description: While using VC1 (ALT-F1 on my computer), the driver seems to miss some caracters (even when typing very slowly so it's not a typing overload :-) ) Sometimes caracters do not appear on the screen when I type then, instead I hear a beep. This is even with a just-rebooted system. It happends ONLY with VC1, not VC2,3,4 or whatever, and X11 works perfectly.
Kernel version :
I see this problem since early 2.0. I just re-tried 2.0 and it works well. I have 2.0.16 here and I have the problem.
Any idea or comments ?
