Talk:Linux console

Is it really a block diagram of the VT subsystem?

The article has an image titled Simplified Structure of the Linux Kernel: VT subsystem. I think this image shows a block diagram of a simplified illustration of the structure of the Linux kernel. At most, the 3 gray blocks at the left part of the image could be the VT subsystem, but I am not sure this is the case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.102.224.103 (talk) 22:59, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

Suggested page move and disambiguation page.

I suggest "Linux console" be moved to "The linux console" since at some point, I plan on drafting an article about the Linux Console operating system and I think it would be easier on the eyes to move this to "The linux console" then it would for me to title the new article "Linux console (operating system)" or whatever. With my proposal, we would have "The linux console" for this article, and plain old "Linux console" for the new article about the operating system. Also, I propose the creation of a disambiguation page to distinguish the two since an article doesn't yet exist for the operating system. Thanks. Huggums537 (talk) 23:54, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

• Striking proposal. This is a bad idea, and the new article has already been created. It will be easier to just disambiguate the new article. Thanks. Huggums537 (talk) 05:00, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Hatnote

These proposals are also related to the sourced hatnote I placed within the article. I was reverted on the basis of notability. However, notability applies to the creation of articles, not adding content to them per WP:NNC notability guidelines. Also, User:X96lee15 reverted me claiming in the edit summary there is no mention of the Linux Console operating system in the List of Linux Distributions article. However, a simple text search of the word "console" on the main chart located at the beginning of the article reveals that it is in fact mentioned. Take a look here: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1b/Linux_Distribution_Timeline.svg At any rate, it doesn't even matter if there is a mention of it or not since nobody has to prove anything is notable enough to add content to an article as long as it's reliably sourced and verifiable.

"only AltKey pressed -> programm noticed"

What exactly does this refer to?: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Linux_console&oldid=1038406285

Moreover, is "programm" a misspelling here, or some kind of truncation? More information should be provided to clarify what behaviour this refers to. I'll add a citation needed for now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FEA8:2363:8F00:237B:8B2F:51C4:1A13 (talk) 19:50, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
