Report floppy/tape units on seperate lines as fdX:/ftX: to correct lots of
ways the current scheme failed to end the output with \n.
Add controller and/or drive designator to the fron of several messages
that come from this drive. [It's not fun to track down driver messages
using grep over the source tree.]

Let "grey delete" be a function key (default is 0x7f)
Fix the xor cursor again..
Made the backspace key generate del as default
Made CTRL-space generate nul as default.
(a) bring back ttselect, now that we have xxxdevtotty() it isn't dangerous.
(b) remove all of the wrappers that have been replaced by ttselect
(c) fix formatting in syscons.c and definition in syscons.h
(d) add cxdevtotty
NOT DONE:
(e) make pcvt work... it was already broken...when someone fixes pcvt to
link properly, just rename get_pccons to xxxdevtotty and we're done
is close to 1000000 / 960 usec so the confusion probably didn't matter.
Test for COMCONSOLE before testing for RB_SERIAL so that the RB_SERIAL
test can be optimized away if COMCONSOLE is 1.
Simplify and Uniformize style of previous commit.
(b) add a function callback vector to tty drivers that will return a pointer
to a valid tty structure based upon a dev_t
(c) make syscons structures the same size whether or not APM is enabled so
utilities don't crash if NAPM changes (and make the damn kernel compile!)
(d) rewrite /dev/snp ioctl interface so that it is device driver and i386
independant
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.
briefly over it, and see some serious architectural issues in this stuff.
On the other hand, I doubt that we will have any solution to these issues
before 2.1, so we might as well leave this in.
Most of the stuff is bracketed by #ifdef's so it shouldn't matter too much
in the normal case.

Backtab proberly implemented.

Misc fixes for old "hacks" that broke SCO/SYSV compat.
More that I forgot before writing this...
case, software cursor now optional case. Driver must provide
raw things (what hardware do for us, exactly) as default case,
all driver features must be _optional_. Modern VGAs have internal
configuration utilities to set cursor shape/blinking which stored
into cards ROM, and syscons nuke out such features completely
by forcing software cursor. Moreover, software cursor is hard
to distinguish on standouted (or near standouted) fields and
tends to disappearse from the screen.
Set "flags 0x4" to enable software cursor now.
o Cleanup screen savers.
o Don't draw cursor if saver or blinker is active.
o Duplicated code moved to functons.
o Add more checks for blinker in progress, character lost otherwise
when blinker restore old contents.
o Reduce blinking counter to 3, too slow in old variant.
o Fix timeout code in scrn_timer(), old variant can reenter iself,
if action takes too long time.
o Disable visual bell for scroll lock mode, saved screen
becomes overwritted otherwise.
Obtained from:
sio.c and sioreg.c changed to allow autodetecting the RB_SERIAL flag
passed by the boot blocks so that the kernel can switch to 'serial
console' mode automagically. 'options COMCONSOLE' can still be specified
to force the kernel to always use the serial port as a console.
CONUNIT and CONADDR can also be specified in the kernel config file
if the user wants to shift the console to a different port.
Put in the much shorter and cleaner version for the calibrate_cycle_counter
for the Pentium that Bruce suggested. Tested here on my Pentium and
it works okay.
protected drive at open() time has been *totally bogus*! The guy who
submitted it didn't understand all the implications of calling
set_motor(), and the `who' who included the patch into the tree did it
blindly... Pleeeeze, don't commit code to this driver unless you are
really going to understand what it does! This one caused me to pull
out even more hears, and those who know me do know that i ain't got
too many o'them. :-)
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.

drives are busy as long as at least one instance is open.
Also reformat everything to fit into 80 columns again.
Changed my mind wrt. error reporting for a write-protected drive and
an open() with write intent; ENXIO has been too weird, now return EIO.
Some portions of the code need to be rewritten to use tprintf()
instead of simple printf()'s, so the messages will also appear on the
session terminal, however.

Leave the mishandled code in to use it later if future versions of gcc
are correct. The code was part of the calibrate_cyclecounter routine to
get the speed of the pentium chip.
floppy driver (or in the hardware?). It turned out to be caused by
spurious interrupts, right after an FDC reset.
Also major cleanup in the low-level structure, there are now functions
performing error-checks for the FDC I/O.
