| 33 | If you say Y here, you will get support for terminal devices with |
| 34 | display and keyboard devices. These are called "virtual" because you |
| 35 | can run several virtual terminals (also called virtual consoles) on |
| 36 | one physical terminal. This is rather useful, for example one |
| 37 | virtual terminal can collect system messages and warnings, another |
| 38 | one can be used for a text-mode user session, and a third could run |
| 39 | an X session, all in parallel. Switching between virtual terminals |
| 40 | is done with certain key combinations, usually Alt-<function key>. |
| 41 | |
| 42 | The setterm command ("man setterm") can be used to change the |
| 43 | properties (such as colors or beeping) of a virtual terminal. The |
| 44 | man page console_codes(4) ("man console_codes") contains the special |
| 45 | character sequences that can be used to change those properties |
| 46 | directly. The fonts used on virtual terminals can be changed with |
| 47 | the setfont ("man setfont") command and the key bindings are defined |
| 48 | with the loadkeys ("man loadkeys") command. |
| 49 | |
| 50 | You need at least one virtual terminal device in order to make use |
| 51 | of your keyboard and monitor. Therefore, only people configuring an |
| 52 | embedded system would want to say N here in order to save some |
| 53 | memory; the only way to log into such a system is then via a serial |
| 54 | or network connection. |

| 57 | shiny Linux system :-) |

| 62 | ---help--- |
| 63 | The system console is the device which receives all kernel messages |
| 64 | and warnings and which allows logins in single user mode. If you |
| 65 | answer Y here, a virtual terminal (the device used to interact with |
| 66 | a physical terminal) can be used as system console. This is the most |
| 67 | common mode of operations, so you should say Y here unless you want |
| 68 | the kernel messages be output only to a serial port (in which case |
| 69 | you should say Y to "Console on serial port", below). |
| 70 | |
| 71 | If you do say Y here, by default the currently visible virtual |
| 72 | terminal (/dev/tty0) will be used as system console. You can change |
| 73 | that with a kernel command line option such as "console=tty3" which |
| 74 | would use the third virtual terminal as system console. (Try "man |
| 75 | bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or |
| 76 | loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.) |

| 88 | This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have |
| 89 | a system with only one CPU, say N. If you have a system with more |
| 90 | than one CPU, say Y. |
| 91 | |
| 92 | If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor |
| 93 | machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If |
| 94 | you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all, |
| 95 | singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel |
| 96 | will run faster if you say N here. |
| 97 | |
| 98 | People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say |
| 99 | Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power |
| 100 | Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here. |

| 120 | Sun Microsystems, incorporated. They are very widely found in Sun |
| 121 | workstations and clones. This port covers the original 32-bit SPARC; |
| 122 | it is old and stable and usually considered one of the "big three" |
| 123 | along with the Intel and Alpha ports. The UltraLinux project |

| 150 | computer. These are credit-card size devices such as network cards, |
| 151 | modems or hard drives often used with laptops computers. There are |
| 152 | actually two varieties of these cards: the older 16 bit PCMCIA cards |
| 153 | and the newer 32 bit CardBus cards. If you want to use CardBus |
| 154 | cards, you need to say Y here and also to "CardBus support" below. |
| 155 | |
| 156 | To use your PC-cards, you will need supporting software from David |
| 157 | Hinds' pcmcia-cs package (see the file <file:Documentation/Changes> |
| 158 | for location). Please also read the PCMCIA-HOWTO, available from |

| 179 | mode). This could be useful if some terminal or printer is connected |
| 180 | to that serial port. |
| 181 | |
| 182 | Even if you say Y here, the currently visible virtual console |
| 183 | (/dev/tty0) will still be used as the system console by default, but |
| 184 | you can alter that using a kernel command line option such as |
| 185 | "console=ttyS1". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of |
| 186 | your boot loader (silo) about how to pass options to the kernel at |

| 277 | If you intend to attach a printer to the parallel port of your Linux |
| 278 | box (as opposed to using a serial printer; if the connector at the |
| 279 | printer has 9 or 25 holes ["female"], then it's serial), say Y. |
| 280 | Also read the Printing-HOWTO, available from |
| 281 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. |
| 282 | |
| 283 | It is possible to share one parallel port among several devices |
| 284 | (e.g. printer and ZIP drive) and it is safe to compile the |
| 285 | corresponding drivers into the kernel. If you want to compile this |
| 286 | driver as a module however, choose M here and read |
| 287 | <file:Documentation/parport.txt>. The module will be called lp. |
| 288 | |
| 289 | If you have several parallel ports, you can specify which ports to |
| 290 | use with the "lp" kernel command line option. (Try "man bootparam" |
| 291 | or see the documentation of your boot loader (silo) about how to pass |
| 292 | options to the kernel at boot time.) The syntax of the "lp" command |
| 293 | line option can be found in <file:drivers/char/lp.c>. |
| 294 | |
| 295 | If you have more than 8 printers, you need to increase the LP_NO |
| 296 | macro in lp.c and the PARPORT_MAX macro in parport.h. |

| 339 | ---help--- |
| 340 | A pseudo terminal (PTY) is a software device consisting of two |
| 341 | halves: a master and a slave. The slave device behaves identical to |
| 342 | a physical terminal; the master device is used by a process to |
| 343 | read data from and write data to the slave, thereby emulating a |
| 344 | terminal. Typical programs for the master side are telnet servers |
| 345 | and xterms. |
| 346 | |
| 347 | Linux has traditionally used the BSD-like names /dev/ptyxx for |
| 348 | masters and /dev/ttyxx for slaves of pseudo terminals. This scheme |
| 349 | has a number of problems. The GNU C library glibc 2.1 and later, |
| 350 | however, supports the Unix98 naming standard: in order to acquire a |
| 351 | pseudo terminal, a process opens /dev/ptmx; the number of the pseudo |
| 352 | terminal is then made available to the process and the pseudo |
| 353 | terminal slave can be accessed as /dev/pts/<number>. What was |
| 354 | traditionally /dev/ttyp2 will then be /dev/pts/2, for example. |
| 355 | |
| 356 | The entries in /dev/pts/ are created on the fly by a virtual |
| 357 | file system; therefore, if you say Y here you should say Y to |
| 358 | "/dev/pts file system for Unix98 PTYs" as well. |
| 359 | |
| 360 | If you want to say Y here, you need to have the C library glibc 2.1 |
| 361 | or later (equal to libc-6.1, check with "ls -l /lib/libc.so.*"). |
