what do 'kill -1 1' or 'kill -1 -sh' exactly do in context?
I had considered modifying inittab (and have done so on other systems in past to change number of available VT's).
However, once that TC doesn't run any getty's by default, i would highly prefer to be able to open (and deallocate) VT's dynamically on the fly, according to needs of given moments (avoiding to have getty's running).
Background for starting this thread:
There are 2 apps of extensions which show some erratic behaviour here on console at times. I intend to report them as bugs, but wanted to troubleshoot first and also exclude that my way of opening VT's (as seen in first post) could play any role.
