* agetty: add -c to reuse cflagsKarel Zak2010-08-181-1/+5
| | | | | | | The agetty command resets terminal cflags setting. The -c option disables this behavior and serial setting from kernel is used. Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
* agetty: add -s to reuse existing baud rateKarel Zak2010-08-181-11/+5Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | For example: /sbin/agetty -s /dev/ttyS0 9600 will reuse the speed the kernel configured on the port. If the setting from kernel is useless (tty returns BREAK character) then the baud rate from command line (9600) is used.

* agetty: make username-in-uppercase feature optional (off by default.)Hamish Coleman2008-03-061-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following patch makes the username-in-upper-case feature optional. I have chosen to make it default to off since this feature was designed to cater for serial terminals that were last sold almost 30 years ago, thus the likelyhood that anyone will need this feature turned on is vanishingly small.

* agetty: 8 bit characters on the Linux console lead to input corruptionMoritz Muehlenhoff2007-07-251-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 8 bit characters on the Linux console lead to input corruption (e.g. German umlauts). This is easily reproducable by inserting a login name with umlaut and typing backspace afterwards. agetty supports tty parity, which leads to getty treating these characters as a 7bit char with set parity. This patch by Samuel Thibault adds a new option -8 which disables parity detection for ttys not used for serial logins. | Note: With this patch, 8bit characters are just silently dropped (that's | the expected getty behavior), this is quite neat since you then don't | even need to backspace your 8bit characters :) Signed-off-by: LaMont Jones <lamont@mmjgroup.com>
