Removed screensavers from syscons, they are now LKM's. This makes it
possible to do some really "interesting" screensavers...
Fixed bug that sometimes caused garbage to appear when leaving
"scroll-lock" history.
Reformattet indentation, it got too deep for a normal 80 pos screen.
Split up in syscons.c & syscons.h for use with the saver-lkm's.
Temporarily removed -s option from vidcontrol, savers should now
be loaded with modload.
IP addresses and/or protocol+port, but in the case where both are
supplied, it happily accepts the command but ignores the proto+port
It also attempts to handle the case where the second IP address
is omitted, but this doesn't work.

via sysctl(8). The initial value of maxprocperuid is maxproc-1,
that of maxfilesperproc is maxfiles (untill maxfile will disappear)
Now it is at least possible to prohibit one user opening maxfiles

just thinking about it.
Two changes need to be made to allow 'config kernel swap generic' to
work properly without requiring any compile-time flags:
/usr/src/usr.sbin/config/mkswapconf.c: we need to define a dummy stub
for the setconf() function to replace the one in swapgeneric.c that
isn't available in non-generic configurations.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/autoconf.c: the -a boot flag causes setroot()
to be skipped and lets setconf() prompt the user for a root device.
If you skip setroot() in a non-generic kernel, you could get severely
hosed. To avoid this, we silently ignore the -a flag if rootdev != NODEV.
(rootdev is always initialized to NODEV in swapgeneric.c, so if
we find that rootdev is something other than NODEV, we know we're
not using a generic configuration.)
Support slice numbers in device names. The syntax is `<driver name>
[<unit number>] ['s' <slice number>] [<partition letter>]'. Only
`['s' <slice number>]' is new here. The slice number defaults to 0
so that there is no change in the output from config if this new
feature is not used.
Replace some magic disk numbers by `dk' slice and label macros.
mkswapconf.c:
Improve the output formatting:
Generate <> style includes.
Print minor numbers in hex so that slice numbers are easy to see and edit.
Print the rootdev and dumpdev names in comments like the swapdev names.
The existing ypbind exhibits some truly anti-social behavior. After
initially establishing a binding with an NIS server, the following events
take place:
- ypbind waits for 60 seconds before trying to broadcast a ping again
- after the 60 seconds expires, ypbind sends out broadcasts every 5 seconds
come hell or high water.
These broadcasts travel far and wide, even to NIS servers in other domains
which dutifully log the packets even though they don't respond to them.
This leads to lots of unnecessary traffic and bloated log files.
This behavior has been fixed/changed. Here's what happens now:
- We still broadcast every 5 seconds at startup, just like before.
- Once bound, we send out packets once every 60 seconds to the server
we're bound to AND NO ONE ELSE.
- If we fail to receive a reply from our server within FAIL_THRESHOLD
seconds, we assume our server has croaked and go back to broadcasting
everywhere every 5 seconds again until somebody answers. FAIL_THRESHOLD
is currently set to 20 seconds.
Other fixes/improvements:
- ypbind now logs 'server not responding' and 'server OK' messages where
appropriate.

in here that just made it a heck of a lot more confusing to maintain.
Somebody like Joerg can reality-check this at some point, when they have more
time. For now, it works.
Display update method changed, now allways write in memory buffer,
then periodically update physical display.
Speed improvements (now > 5 times faster than the old syscons).
History now circular buffer, with changeable size.
History scroll by up/down line, up/down page, home and end.
Backtab proberly implemented.
Now space for 96 function keys, 63 allocated standard, default now
SCO/SYSV compat again as in the old days.
New keyboard definition files ~share/syscons/keymaps/*
Misc fixes for old "hacks" that broke SCO/SYSV compat.
More that I forgot before writing this...

This command is required to exist in terms of compatibility with the
Posix 1003.2 specification. It actually invokes the lpr service with
the proper options.
No kernel config options anymore besides keyboard language layout.
Virtual consoles are now dynamically allocated, no NCONS anymore.
Software cursor blinking/nonblinking.
Visual bell for laptops (don't beep at meetings :-).
Cursor/bell default type setable via config "flags" instead of as defines.
Cursor/bell type setable via ioctl's.
New video modes 80x30 80x60 for some laptops, and those with multisync monitors.
Scroll-lock history (length currently fixed at 100 lines).
Lots of cleanups, some only commented out for now (will goaway soon).
Support for new features in vidcontrol/kbdcontrol.
Updated manpages.
Index descriptions are limited to MAXINDEXSIZE (60) chars. Any description
beyond that is truncated. Also, only the first line is displayed as well.
This allows pkg_info -a -I to be formated in two columns with one line
per package for easy reading.
