Console messages
I was wondering if anyone knows a way to keep the heading up on a console rather than losing it when you are typing things in.
I am referring to the header that states what the distro is and such. I obviously changed all that, but I am just curious if there is a way to make it stay up. |
I'm sure it can be done by passing something to the console program. For instance, in xterm you can do it by using the -title flag : xterm -title TitleGoesHere .. Try checking the manpages or docs of whatever console program you're using.

I tried man bash, but it yielded nothing for me.
BTW- This is for the actual console session of tty, not an X based terminal |
i dont think this is possible without hacking the virtual console code in the kernel. or finding a getty that supports this. i had a look at altenative getty's on sourceforge and none looked like they would support that.

Ok, well how about this. Is there a way to transfer the console to a different monitor, assuming you had a dual head setup. That way one could be the graphical and the otehr would display your command line.
