>> Fl?vio<br clear="all"><br>I think you are right there. Fedora did in fact reduce the number of VT's somewhere along the line. Yet I can't remember why either. It's probably on Google somewhere, but to be honest I can't be bothered looking into it right now.<br>
<br>I can't see a decision affecting me personally as I really only sit in one terminal at a time anyway. Sometimes two, but rarely any more than that.<br>And tbh, I can't see any reason to change the current number. There appears to be no apparent reason to do so. Not that anyone's brought forward yet anyway.<br>
