Re: vt7 + faketty + hijacled!

[Daniel W. <da...@in...>]

Hi,

We found a solution for the problem here. We do not start any getty at 
"inittab" and instead have only the command:

1:2345:once:setterm -blank 0 -powerdown 0

In that way we avoid the kernel to turn off the video cards and can use 
all X on faketty.

Works fine here.

Daniel
