fbterm - issue #32

can'y copy selection between consoles


Posted on Mar 9, 2010 by Swift Rabbit

environment: debian testing linux 2.6.32-trunk-686 fbterm 1.6 gpm 1.20.4

i have two types of consoles - fbcon from the kernel and the fbterm. fbcon is the default text console, and fbterm graphical console. with gpm i'm able to select text with mouse and paste between consoles. it works fine if the copy-paste is between two fbcons or fbterms, but if i select some text in an fbcon i can't paste it to an fbterm, and vice-versa.

it's a system limit, and impossible to share text selection between fbcon and fbterm.
