5 copies of agetty running
when I run top I see that I have 5 copies of agetty running on my desktop system
Is there a configuration file somewhere that controls this? or does the system look at my hardware and assume this? can someone point me to a document that tells about what the system starts and why? |
A good start would be to post "What system you are running? "

I experimented with ctrl alt f1 and sure enough I get a text console. so now I understand what this is. Unless I'm wrong the result is similar to init 1 except in that case the existing x system goes away - whereas in this case there are 2 systems or more running in parallel. Question closed. |
