kmscon: kmscon (KMS/DRM based System Console) kmscon: kmscon: kmscon is a system console for linux. It does not depend on any kmscon: graphics-server on your system (like X.org), but instead provides kmscon: a raw console layer that can be used independently. It can replace kmscon: the linux kernel console entirely but was designed to work well kmscon: side-by-side, too. Even though initially targeted at providing kmscon: internationalization to the system-console, it has grown into a fully kmscon: modularized console layer including features like multi-head support, kmscon: internationalized font rendering, XKB-compatible keyboard handling, kmscon: hardware-accelerated graphics access and more.
