No patches any more - fake tty driver

[Aivils S. <ai...@un...>]

Hi , All!

Don't like patched kernel. Ok try out vanilla!

	Main goal of this fake TTY driver is multi seat Linux box creation
without any patch under Debian stable or Mandriva 2005 LE , which distros
contains -isolateDevice patch of X.

	Recent Linux kernel does not force us use evdev or tty layer. Even sytem
operator can load new input handler. Actualy i write faketty kernel module,
which create device file for each keyboard. That device file emulate TTY 
layer.
Keypress events are translated to standard TTY layer keycodes. These keycodes
can use X for input.

	linux-ruby assign /dev/ttyXX for each keyboard. faketty assign
/dev/fttyXX for each keyboard.

	Current i use simple starting method
# modprobe faketty
# rm -f /dev/tty5[0-9]
# ln -s /dev/ftty0 /dev/tty50
Now /dev/tty50 is not standard TTY layer device but new. Start X via
new layer:
# startx -- vt50

LIMITATIONS:

	All pluged in keybords must be opened via new faketty driver, because
each keyboard at normal TTY steer LED's of all keyboards of system. If You 
will
start multiple X, every one X must use faketty for correct work of LED's. This
mean text mode console is unavaible.

BUGS:
	faketty creates /dev/fttyXX files for each input device, but must create
for keyboards only.
