If the answer is someday, can whoever is responsible for break console output please revert their changes? There is a much worse problem at the moment on my laptop where heavy disk IO leads to a complete lock-up of the system. The lock up sometimes times out after 30 seconds. Without a console it is somewhat difficult to boot either in single user mode or to boot an older kernel. -- Steve
