Add displaying of /etc/issue to lock screen #88

Closed hv15 closed 4 years ago

hv15 commented 4 years ago

This PR includes commits from myself, @deviousgeek, and @Tim_McBride which extend physlock lock screen to include the parsed content of /etc/issue.

xyb3rt commented 4 years ago

Sorry but I am not going to merge this because it exceeds the scope of physlock.

hv15 commented 4 years ago

Would the last two commits be useful, regarding adding the close for stderr and alternative scrollback clearing of screen?

xyb3rt commented 4 years ago

Closing Stderr is a good addition. I am not so sure about the clearing of the screen. Is it still necessary? I had no failure of VT_DISALLOCATE for quite some time.
