Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

+config VT
+        bool "Virtual terminal" if EMBEDDED
+        select INPUT
+        default y if !VIOCONS
+        ---help---
+          If you say Y here, you will get support for terminal devices with
+          display and keyboard devices. These are called "virtual" because you
+          can run several virtual terminals (also called virtual consoles) on
+          one physical terminal. This is rather useful, for example one
+          virtual terminal can collect system messages and warnings, another
+          one can be used for a text-mode user session, and a third could run
+          an X session, all in parallel. Switching between virtual terminals
+          is done with certain key combinations, usually Alt-<function key>.
+
+          The setterm command ("man setterm") can be used to change the
+          properties (such as colors or beeping) of a virtual terminal. The
+          man page console_codes(4) ("man console_codes") contains the special
+          character sequences that can be used to change those properties
+          directly. The fonts used on virtual terminals can be changed with
+          the setfont ("man setfont") command and the key bindings are defined
+          with the loadkeys ("man loadkeys") command.
+
+          You need at least one virtual terminal device in order to make use
+          of your keyboard and monitor. Therefore, only people configuring an
+          embedded system would want to say N here in order to save some
+          memory; the only way to log into such a system is then via a serial
+          or network connection.
+
+          If unsure, say Y, or else you won't be able to do much with your new
+          shiny Linux system :-)
+
+config VT_CONSOLE
+        bool "Support for console on virtual terminal" if EMBEDDED
+        depends on VT
+        default y
+        ---help---
+          The system console is the device which receives all kernel messages
+          and warnings and which allows logins in single user mode. If you
+          answer Y here, a virtual terminal (the device used to interact with
+          a physical terminal) can be used as system console. This is the most
+          common mode of operations, so you should say Y here unless you want
+          the kernel messages be output only to a serial port (in which case
+          you should say Y to "Console on serial port", below).
+
+          If you do say Y here, by default the currently visible virtual
+          terminal (/dev/tty0) will be used as system console. You can change
+          that with a kernel command line option such as "console=tty3" which
+          would use the third virtual terminal as system console. (Try "man
+          bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or
+          loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.)
+
+          If unsure, say Y.

+config SERIAL_NONSTANDARD
+        bool "Non-standard serial port support"
+        ---help---
+          Say Y here if you have any non-standard serial boards -- boards
+          which aren't supported using the standard "dumb" serial driver.
+          This includes intelligent serial boards such as Cyclades,
+          Digiboards, etc. These are usually used for systems that need many
+          serial ports because they serve many terminals or dial-in
+          connections.
+
+          Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
+          kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
+          the questions about non-standard serial boards.
+
+          Most people can say N here.

+          and xterms.
+

+          terminal slave can be accessed as /dev/pts/<number>. What was
+          traditionally /dev/ttyp2 will then be /dev/pts/2, for example.

+          A pseudo terminal (PTY) is a software device consisting of two
+          halves: a master and a slave. The slave device behaves identical to
+          a physical terminal; the master device is used by a process to
+          read data from and write data to the slave, thereby emulating a
+          terminal. Typical programs for the master side are telnet servers
+          and xterms.
+

+          terminals. This scheme has a number of problems, including

+
+          If you have several parallel ports, you can specify which ports to

+

+
+          If the printer is out of paper (or off, or unplugged, or too
+          busy..) the kernel will stall until the printer is ready again.
+          By defining CONSOLE_LP_STRICT to 0 (at your own risk) you

+          The ACP modem (Mwave) for Linux is a WinModem. It is composed of a
+          kernel driver and a user level application. Together these components
+          support direct attachment to public switched telephone networks (PSTNs)
+          and support selected world wide countries.
+
+          This version of the ACP Modem driver supports the IBM Thinkpad 600E,
+          600, and 770 that include on board ACP modem hardware.
+
+          The modem also supports the standard communications port interface
+          (ttySx) and is compatible with the Hayes AT Command Set.
+
+          The user level application needed to use this driver can be found at
+          the IBM Linux Technology Center (LTC) web site:
+          <http://www.ibm.com/linux/ltc/>.
+
+          If you own one of the above IBM Thinkpads which has the Mwave chipset
+          in it, say Y.
+
+          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+          module will be called mwave.

+          See the raw(8) manpage for more details.
+
+          The raw driver is deprecated and may be removed from 2.7
+          kernels.  Applications should simply open the device (eg /dev/hda1)
+          with the O_DIRECT flag.
