Hello,
The syscons manual page says:
" The following options will remove some features from the syscons
driver
and save kernel memory.
[...]
SC_NO_SYSMOUSE
This option removes mouse support in the syscons driver. The
mouse daemon moused(8) will fail if this option is defined.
This
option implies the SC_NO_CUTPASTE option too.
"
How much memory does this save (or how can I discover that)? Is it worth
it on a 96MB PentiumII laptop?
Thanks in advance,
Ronald.

Not worth disabling on your system. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
