I remember thinking "ah, that's in safe hands". Will the real > new console maintainer please stand up? :-) #include Well, I don't think screen needs changes. screen can be used to manage any terminal device (including multiple of these at the same time in different screen windows). I'm using "screen -c /dev/null /dev/ttyS0 115200" to manage the serial console of the crashing devel machine ;) "screen /dev/pts/" works fine as well, I use that sometimes with user mode linux which can redirect the consoles devices of the uml virtual machine to pseudo terminals on the host machine. Something simliar would probably work fine for xen as well, although it probably isn't as easy as with uml when considering migration ... Gerd -- #define printk(args...) fprintf(stderr, ## args)
