It does not depend on any +graphics-server on your system (like X.org), but instead provides a raw +console layer that can be used independently. It can replace the linux +kernel console entirely but was designed to work well side-by-side, +too.

If you want to use kmscon for all your +console logins, edit /etc/inittab and replace the /sbin/agetty lines +(around line 50 on Slack 14.1) with: + +c1:12345:respawn:/usr/bin/kmscon --vt /dev/tty1 +c2:12345:respawn:/usr/bin/kmscon --vt /dev/tty2 +c3:12345:respawn:/usr/bin/kmscon --vt /dev/tty3 +c4:12345:respawn:/usr/bin/kmscon --vt /dev/tty4 +c5:12345:respawn:/usr/bin/kmscon --vt /dev/tty5 +c6:12345:respawn:/usr/bin/kmscon --vt /dev/tty6 + +You might also want to edit /etc/kmscon/kmscon.conf and uncomment the +line beginning with 'login=/sbin/agetty ...'. + +If you're in the habit of logging in as root, you'll want to edit +/etc/securetty and uncomment the lines for pts/0 through pts/7. This +is only needed for actual root logins (su and sudo will work fine +without it). + +After making your edits, "init q" followed by "killall agetty" will fire +up the new kmscon login prompts (alternatively, you can reboot). + +There's no need to use setcap if you're running kmscon from /etc/inittab, +since it will always run as root. + +Misc +---- + +You'll almost certainly want to use a UTF-8 locale with kmscon. Normally +this is set in /etc/profile.d/lang.sh (but you could also do it in your +your ~/.bash_profile or such, if you like). + +When using kmscon, you'll have to use ctrl-alt-F# to switch consoles. Also +try ctrl-plus and ctrl-minus (for zooming). + +You won't be able to run links in framebuffer mode (with "links -g +-driver fb") from within a kmscon session. + +startx will work normally from kmscon. + +kmscon has *no* support for gpm, or the mouse in general. There's no way +to select or paste text with the mouse, and no way to use the mouse in +mouse-aware textmode applications like links. + +svgalib applications are highly unlikely to work from within kmscon. + +mplayer's framebuffer support (-vo fbdev or -vo fbdev2) doesn't work from +within kmscon. + +Japanese man pages render beautifully with kmscon.
