Systemd Adding Its Own Console To Linux Systems

Posted by Soulskill on from the if-you-want-something-done-right dept.

An anonymous reader writes: The next version of systemd is poised to introduce an experimental "systemd-consoled" that serves as a user-space console daemon. The consoled furthers the Linux developers' goal of eventually deprecating the VT subsystem found within the Linux kernel in favor of a user-space driven terminal that supports better localization, increased security, and greater robustness of the kernel's seldom touched and hairy CONFIG_VT'ed code.

    All systemd needs now is an integrated web browser and a registry!
