Becase of the following change in /sys/dev/syscons, you need to
recompile both the kernel, the vesa module and screen savers.

# Well, if you don't use the vesa module and the screen savers, 
# you can forget about this :-)

Thank you for your cooperation.

>    console I/O, though.
>  - Likewise, call ttymalloc() for /dev/sysmouse and /dev/consolectl.
>  - Delete unnecessary test on the pointer struct tty *tp in some functions.
>  - Delete unused code in scmouse.c.

>  WARNING: this change requires you to recompile screen savers!
