Re: [BUG] 2.5.69 - no setfont and loadkeys on tty > 1

Hi!

appears the flashing is the issue. I will see if a hardware cursor
also has

   Your right. I realize my logic error. I was literally thinking too black 
and white. In the case of a cursor that is a white thin line at the bottom 
and a grey background. That is whole cursor image!! The mask should be
the font image to be drawn. 
   You can think of it as the cursor being a big grey cookie with white 
frosting decoration on the bottom. Then I come with my font shape cookie 
cutter and cut it out.  

I'm not sure I follow you.

What I do in that echo is set softcursor. It was software cursor even
on plain vga. Boot into 2.4 to see how it should look like. It works
even in vga text modes. It is different from softcursor later
introduced by fbcon. Documentation/VGA-softcursor.txt describes it.
