Hi,
I just recently converted to codrv (from syscons) and have run into
some problems and questions. Note that this is on a system with a
monochrom VGA display.
1. I cannot switch to ttyv6 with the F7 key. Codrv seems to ignore
the Ctl-Alt-F7 hot key. Hitting Ctl-Alt-F7 appears to result
in the same escape sequence that I get when hitting only
Ctl-F7.
2. When in caps lock, the shift key does not result in lower case
characters. I am not certain whether this is a bug or a
feature :-)
3. With my monochrom VGA monitor, things that should be highlighted
(they were reverse video with syscons) are not. If I turn the
intensity way up I can see a faintly lighter background.
Any pointers or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
--
