While I certainly don't object for the wscons terminals, I'm a bit worried for serial console users. Can't that screw them up? IOW, I'm ok for the ttyE lines, but I'd like to be sure that e.g. vi won't be unusable if you change the console lines that way when used over serial. I think a mention of that issue was buried somewhere inside der Mouse's mumbling, so I understand if you didn't notice it, but I'd like to see it addressed. -- Quentin Garnier - cube%cubidou.net@localhost - cube%NetBSD.org@localhost "See the look on my face from staying too long in one place [...] every time the morning breaks I know I'm closer to falling" KT Tunstall, Saving My Face, Drastic Fantastic, 2007.
