Message-ID: <x662lbqvn1@gzp> (raw)
lo lo,
util-linux's agetty never cleared the terminal before 2.20.
I don't think its good idea to set clear screen to default, since
after upgrading from <2.20 versions, everywhere have to modify the
inittab with the --no-clear option.
Also this Num/Caps/Scroll Lock on/off printf hint in the code looks
quite funny... Can't be set this optional and not printed by default?
Earlier versions weren't so noisy.
