2 # This files tells the console-tools package:
4 # - whether to load a specific font and boot (and maybe a screen-font map,
5 # but you should avoid that if possible).
6 # - whether to setup an Application-Charset Map other than the default CP437.
7 # - whether to start "vcstime" to have time on all text VC'S.
9 # You can also specify per-VC settings by suffixing variable names as in
10 # the examples below. This only works on framebuffer devices.
14 # - When using the new framebuffer devices, the "global setting" for a font
15 # only affects the current console (ie., at boot-time, the first one)
16 # - ACM setting involves 2 steps (maybe loading a user ACM, and activating
17 # it on a given charset slot - see charset(1) for details), the 1st of which
18 # affects the entire system, but the 2nd of which only affects the current
19 # VC (ie., at boot-time, the first one). So that if you want to use the same
20 # ACM on all VCs, you have to specify "APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc<N>=user" for all
21 # relevant values of <N>.

41 # very old monitors that don't support DPMS signalling.
43 # screen blanking timeout. monitor remains on, but the screen is cleared to
44 # range: 0-60 min (0==never) kernels I've looked at default to 10 minutes.

48 # blanking method (VESA DPMS mode to use after BLANK_TIME, before powerdown):
49 # on: the default, no DPMS signalling. near instant powerup, no power saving
50 # vsync: DPMS Standby mode. nearly instant recovery, uses 110/120W (17" screen)
51 # hsync: DPMS Suspend mode. typically 3s recovery, uses 15/120W (17" screen)
52 # powerdown,off: DPMS Off mode, typ. 10s recovery, uses 5/120W (17" screen)
54 # Those values are for my 17" Mag, but some monitors do suspend the same as
55 # standby. xset dpms force {off|standby|suspend|on} is useful for this, if X
56 # supports DPMS on your video card. Set X's DPMS screensaver with xset dpms
57 # or use option power_saver in XF86Config
59 # DPMS set by default to on, because hsync can cause problems on certain
60 # hardware, such as Armada E500 laptops
63 # Powerdown time. The console will go to DPMS Off mode POWERDOWN_TIME
64 # minutes _after_ blanking. (POWERDOWN_TIME + BLANK_TIME after the last input)
67 # rate and delay can get only specific values, consult kbdrate(1) for help
71 # Turn on numlock by default
