[SPARC]: Remove some duplicated sparc32 config items
Remove some duplicated items due to the inclusion of the general
drivers/Kconfig file. These are now taken from drivers/char/Kconfig,
and can be turned off there as well (which is desirable sometimes).

33 | If you say Y here, you will get support for terminal devices with | ||
34 | display and keyboard devices. These are called "virtual" because you | ||
35 | can run several virtual terminals (also called virtual consoles) on | ||
36 | one physical terminal. This is rather useful, for example one | ||
37 | virtual terminal can collect system messages and warnings, another | ||
38 | one can be used for a text-mode user session, and a third could run | ||
39 | an X session, all in parallel. Switching between virtual terminals | ||
40 | is done with certain key combinations, usually Alt-<function key>. | ||
41 | |||
42 | The setterm command ("man setterm") can be used to change the | ||
43 | properties (such as colors or beeping) of a virtual terminal. The | ||
44 | man page console_codes(4) ("man console_codes") contains the special | ||
45 | character sequences that can be used to change those properties | ||
46 | directly. The fonts used on virtual terminals can be changed with | ||
47 | the setfont ("man setfont") command and the key bindings are defined | ||
48 | with the loadkeys ("man loadkeys") command. | ||
49 | |||
50 | You need at least one virtual terminal device in order to make use | ||
51 | of your keyboard and monitor. Therefore, only people configuring an | ||
52 | embedded system would want to say N here in order to save some | ||
53 | memory; the only way to log into such a system is then via a serial | ||
54 | or network connection. | ||
55 | |||
56 | If unsure, say Y, or else you won't be able to do much with your new | ||
57 | shiny Linux system :-) | ||

63 | The system console is the device which receives all kernel messages | ||
64 | and warnings and which allows logins in single user mode. If you | ||
65 | answer Y here, a virtual terminal (the device used to interact with | ||
66 | a physical terminal) can be used as system console. This is the most | ||
67 | common mode of operations, so you should say Y here unless you want | ||
68 | the kernel messages be output only to a serial port (in which case | ||
69 | you should say Y to "Console on serial port", below). | ||
70 | |||
71 | If you do say Y here, by default the currently visible virtual | ||
72 | terminal (/dev/tty0) will be used as system console. You can change | ||
73 | that with a kernel command line option such as "console=tty3" which | ||
74 | would use the third virtual terminal as system console. (Try "man | ||
75 | bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or | ||
76 | loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.) | ||
