Hello.

Ok, that's good to know. Why
is it that libgpm is not available as
root console?

It still can be used, but you have to
set $_graphics=(0) then.
man gpm:
---
While the current console is in graphic mode, gpm sleeps until text mode is back (unless -R is used). Thus, it won’t reply to clients.
---
But the root-console with $_graphics=(0)
gives the corrupted national characters
to me, so I don't know how usefull it is.
