Hi,
Under Debian, is there a method which allows any user directly logged
onto the host and using the host's keyboard and monitor to take
ownership of some that host's devices? For example, to change the
ownership of /dev/xconsole or /dev/fd0 to be owned by the user

The problem is, as you can see from the subject, the new /dev/console device.
It seems that with slink there used to be a link /dev/console -> tty0. However
series 2.2 kernels probably have some other mechanism and a new /dev/console
device. Therefor, I think deb
I was learning (a little) about tty devices, and learned, from
`potato' MAKEDEV and the kernel sources, that in 2.0 kernels,
/dev/console -> /dev/tty0, but in 2.2, /dev/console should be node
5,1.
I've been running 2.2 for some time... but until yesterday, my

Hi,
recently, I wanted to use an Eterm as a substitute for
xconsole. Eterm -C lets it listen to /dev/console.
On Debian systems, however, /dev/console is linked to /dev/tty0:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Apr 7 1999 /dev/console -> tty0
so *Eterm doesn't catch anything*. xconso

My understanding

advantages/disadvantages?

I'm wondering how to get /dev/console to work properly in Debian.
I'm running Debian 2.1 slink, and a 2.2.12 kernel. I've seen that the
Debian distribution sets /dev/console up as a symlink to /dev/tty0, while
slackware and Redhat create an actual device with Major # 5 and Minor #

Hi,
I discovered that on ALL my systems that originally were Debian 2.0 and have

instead of a device special file (mknod -m 622 /dev/console c 5 1).

Uhm no that should be /etc/kbd/config, if you have it. For some reason the
