These are called "virtual" because you - can run several virtual terminals (also called virtual consoles) on - one physical terminal. This is rather useful, for example one - virtual terminal can collect system messages and warnings, another - one can be used for a text-mode user session, and a third could run - an X session, all in parallel. Switching between virtual terminals - is done with certain key combinations, usually Alt-<function key>. - - The setterm command ("man setterm") can be used to change the - properties (such as colors or beeping) of a virtual terminal. The - man page console_codes(4) ("man console_codes") contains the special - character sequences that can be used to change those properties - directly. The fonts used on virtual terminals can be changed with - the setfont ("man setfont") command and the key bindings are defined - with the loadkeys ("man loadkeys") command. - - You need at least one virtual terminal device in order to make use - of your keyboard and monitor.

If you - answer Y here, a virtual terminal (the device used to interact with - a physical terminal) can be used as system console. This is the most - common mode of operations, so you should say Y here unless you want - the kernel messages be output only to a serial port (in which case - you should say Y to "Console on serial port", below). - - If you do say Y here, by default the currently visible virtual - terminal (/dev/tty0) will be used as system console. You can change - that with a kernel command line option such as "console=tty3" which - would use the third virtual terminal as system console. (Try "man - bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or - loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.) - - If unsure, say Y. - -config HW_CONSOLE - bool - depends on VT && !S390 && !UM - default y - -comment "Unix98 PTY support" - -config UNIX98_PTYS - bool "Unix98 PTY support" - ---help--- - A pseudo terminal (PTY) is a software device consisting of two - halves: a master and a slave. The slave device behaves identical to - a physical terminal; the master device is used by a process to - read data from and write data to the slave, thereby emulating a - terminal. Typical programs for the master side are telnet servers - and xterms. - - Linux has traditionally used the BSD-like names /dev/ptyxx for - masters and /dev/ttyxx for slaves of pseudo terminals. This scheme - has a number of problems. The GNU C library glibc 2.1 and later, - however, supports the Unix98 naming standard: in order to acquire a - pseudo terminal, a process opens /dev/ptmx; the number of the pseudo - terminal is then made available to the process and the pseudo - terminal slave can be accessed as /dev/pts/<number>. What was - traditionally /dev/ttyp2 will then be /dev/pts/2, for example. - - The entries in /dev/pts/ are created on the fly by a virtual - file system; therefore, if you say Y here you should say Y to - "/dev/pts file system for Unix98 PTYs" as well. - - If you want to say Y here, you need to have the C library glibc 2.1 - or later (equal to libc-6.1, check with "ls -l /lib/libc.so.*"). - Read the instructions in <file:Documentation/Changes> pertaining to - pseudo terminals.
