What were you trying to do?
Show someone how to use show_console (since I don't use xlogin :-) )
What's wrong:
Said person uses xterm -C. show_console prints a
message to /dev/console, so it didn't work.
What should have happened:
It should have printed the message to /dev/ttyv0. I'm
glad this bug existed. We got a good laugh out of it :-)
