7 If you say Y here, you will get support for terminal devices with
8 display and keyboard devices. These are called "virtual" because you
9 can run several virtual terminals (also called virtual consoles) on
10 one physical terminal. This is rather useful, for example one
11 virtual terminal can collect system messages and warnings, another
12 one can be used for a text-mode user session, and a third could run
13 an X session, all in parallel. Switching between virtual terminals
14 is done with certain key combinations, usually Alt-<function key>.
15
16 The setterm command ("man setterm") can be used to change the
17 properties (such as colors or beeping) of a virtual terminal. The
18 man page console_codes(4) ("man console_codes") contains the special
19 character sequences that can be used to change those properties
20 directly. The fonts used on virtual terminals can be changed with
21 the setfont ("man setfont") command and the key bindings are defined
22 with the loadkeys ("man loadkeys") command.
23
24 You need at least one virtual terminal device in order to make use
25 of your keyboard and monitor. Therefore, only people configuring an
26 embedded system would want to say N here in order to save some
27 memory; the only way to log into such a system is then via a serial

48 answer Y here, a virtual terminal (the device used to interact with
49 a physical terminal) can be used as system console. This is the most

89 A pseudo terminal (PTY) is a software device consisting of two
90 halves: a master and a slave. The slave device behaves identical to
91 a physical terminal; the master device is used by a process to
92 read data from and write data to the slave, thereby emulating a
93 terminal. Typical programs for the master side are telnet servers
94 and xterms.
95
96 Linux has traditionally used the BSD-like names /dev/ptyxx for
97 masters and /dev/ttyxx for slaves of pseudo terminals. This scheme
98 has a number of problems. The GNU C library glibc 2.1 and later,
99 however, supports the Unix98 naming standard: in order to acquire a
100 pseudo terminal, a process opens /dev/ptmx; the number of the pseudo
101 terminal is then made available to the process and the pseudo
102 terminal slave can be accessed as /dev/pts/<number>. What was
103 traditionally /dev/ttyp2 will then be /dev/pts/2, for example.

220 The Cyclades-Z family of multiport cards allows 2 (two) driver op
221 modes: polling and interrupt. In polling mode, the driver will check
222 the status of the Cyclades-Z ports every certain amount of time
223 (which is called polling cycle and is configurable). In interrupt
224 mode, it will use an interrupt line (IRQ) in order to check the
225 status of the Cyclades-Z ports. The default op mode is polling. If
226 unsure, say N.

385 Note that only one early console driver can be enabled, so don't
386 enable any others if you enable this one.

388 If the number you specify is not a valid byte channel handle, then
389 there simply will be no early console output. This is true also
390 if you don't boot under a hypervisor at all.
