I have a question about tty , I tried to setup debian on my n900 using debootstrap (following instructions on https://elektranox.org/n900/installation/manual.html), i want a basic console login ,not X , so i left nodm disabled, rebooting into the debian install , it boots but the screen freezes at "Booting" , i know it booted because connectiong it to my desktop , i can ssh into it , please note that if X is started (typing startx from desktop), the display works and graphical desktop is displayed , what i really need it to get console login , I read that this problem is related to tty being disabled at kernel level , before messing with the kernel , is there any workaround ? other possible causes ? thanks alot
