Just to remind you that it's not the console _server_ which conflicts with X, but the console _client_ using vga or a keyboard driver. Your mail wasn't clear at all about that. The console server itself just work nice with X, you can run a console client inside an xterm using the ncursesw console client plugin. I don't think the correct solution would be for X and the console to directly speak to each other like X saying to the console client "stop please", but rather a per-ressource (VGA, keyboard, mouse) way to say "I want exclusive access to this ressource". The console client itself would just agree to give to the access to X, or something like that. It would be nice too if we could "switch" at run-time from X to console and vice-versa like we can do on GNU/Linux. -- Gael Le Mignot "Kilobug" - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://kilobug.free.fr GSM : 06.71.47.18.22 (in France) ICQ UIN : 7299959 Fingerprint : 1F2C 9804 7505 79DF 95E6 7323 B66B F67B 7103 C5DA Member of HurdFr: http://hurdfr.org - The GNU Hurd: http://hurd.gnu.org _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
