Thanks for the pointer to xkeyboard-config!

The libGL errors don't seem to affect the functionality, but I have only
tried with a text console.  The client does run intel graphics, so it
might be some confusion due to that.

I mean that there is nobody who is both interested in unionfs and capable
of fixing it, and it was so at least from the 8.x times.

Also, I do not think that VFS needs a redesign to support unionfs-like
operations.  The problems that current unionfs has are its local problems.

Booting Raspberry Pi with input on serial console

2017-03-10 Thread Peter Ankerstål
Hi!

I have a problem that should (?) have a simple solution but I havent found one. 

I have a raspberry pi with a NMEA-GPS constantly hooked up to the serial 
console of the Pi. 

My problem is that when booting the Pi it will interpet the output from the GPS 
as input to the boot process and the boot will fail. How can I have the serial 
interface of the GPS permanently hooked up to the pi without preventing the 
system to boot?

Thanks!

/Peter.

are there settings starting with the boot loader to stop the console?

It sounds to me like a custom solution or take a relay which switches
the input on only after the system is up and running. Either by
software or by a timer.

Yes, I know, stone-age is sending greetings.
