It sounds really bad to have 2 drivers operating on the same devices. If you have uart(4) for console and keyboard, you should probably remove ofw_console. Your patch looks like a big kluge. Mostly because you're delaying cninit() and hardcode a dependency on ofw_console. That sure breaks my box and I'm not going to add ofw_console simply because I already have a console (using uart(4)). -- Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004 marcel@xcllnt.net
