Hi all, I may be imagining it, but I thought that at one stage `xpdf -fullsreen foo.pdf' would launch xpdf with no buttons or scrollbars etc. The current version in unstable (1.00-3.8) includes all these widgets: not exactly what I want for giving presentations. There don't seem to be any runtim

Missing ttys with udev

Hi all, I recently switched from devfs to udev. Everything is fine except that I now have no virtual consoles, only X. The device /dev/tty exists as do /dev/vc/tty/*, but there are no symbolic links like /dev/tty0 -> vc/0. Does anyone know what's going on here? I run a home made 2.6.8 kernel,
