NAME
conscontrol
- control physical console devices
SYNOPSIS
[list
]
mute on | off add | deleteconsole set console | unset
DESCRIPTION
The
utility is used to examine and modify the physical devices which back
the virtual console devices.
If no arguments
(or only the
list
command)
are specified,
the current console settings are shown.
There are two types of logical consoles; a high level console which
is represented by
/dev/console
and a low level console.
The low level console is used for kernel
printf(9)
and
ddb(4)
debugger support,
while the high level console is used by user programs like
syslogd(8).
Multiple device support is implemented only for the low level console;
the high level console is set to the first device in the console list.
Multiple console support may be invoked by passing the kernel the
-D
flag from the boot loader, or by using
to change the list of console devices after the system has booted.
The following options are available:
add | delete console
Add or delete a physical device from the logical console.
The device must support low-level console operations.
Adding a device will place it at the front of the list of console
devices; the first device is used for the high level console.
The
console
argument
is the name of a console device in
/dev
the name of the directory may be omitted.
mute on | off
Change the state of console muting.
All console output is suppressed when console muting is
on
set console | unset
Set or unset the virtual console.
When unset, output from the system, such as the kernel
printf(9),
always goes out to the real main console.
When set, it goes to another.
This is an interface to the tty ioctl
