@Jeff
Does this still work for you in Jaunty for the PS3?
I replaced getty by fgetty for ttys 2,3,4,5 and 6, but they failed on
boot on my PS3. As this works fine for me on a Dell laptop, I'm thinking
there might have been a regression on this.
Thanks

So the "normal" getty is still used to enable 6 ttys (in jaunty beta).
The setting resides in the inittabs file in sysvutils. This file is then
processed by a perl script from upstart, and the getty configuration
ends up in /etc/event.d/tttyX
Now, I don't think it is possible to make sysvinit use
Sorry, I probably shouldn't have changed the status for PS3 port, the
proposal to use fgetty to save ram for the PS3 might still apply.

I'm OK with regular usage without noticing issues.
If you want, you can submit changes you did to fgetty, I'll be happy to
sponsor them in Intrepid.

Sure. In fact, I am now using fgetty as my only getty daily on my PS3.
What kind of tests you want me to do?
BTW, I figured a way to test a getty without having to rebooting everytime.
Here is what I do:

I went to the deb-src URL ([0] and [1]) directly, and use wget to download the
source (the .tar.gz and .diff.gz). In the makefile, ppc arch is supported (so
does ppc64). Not sure what do you mean by: PPA doesn't support PPC ar
You can't download it because PPA doesn't support PPC architecture.
Anyway, in order for PPC arch to be available, you can compile code with
-fno-stack-protector, you should have no problems then.

I managed downloaded the package manually. When compiling without any change to
the Makefile, I got:
bin-ppc64/diet gcc -m64 -D__dietlibc__ -pipe -nostdinc -Os -mpowerpc64 -Wall
-W -Wchar-subscripts -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wno-switch
-Wno-unused -Wredundant-decls -o bin-pp
Thank Luca for the fast fix!
I have trouble get the package through apt. Here is what I did:
1) Added the URL to apt sources.lst (at the beginning),
2) apt-get update
3) apt-cache show dietlibc-dev

This is fixed in Hardy.
In order to have fgetty functional in Gutsy too, you can backport
dietlibc package from Hardy and rebuild fgetty against it or using
packages available in Dietlibc Hackers PPA: https://launchpad.net
