How to get keyboard entry on screen?

by Ed Troy :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

I have a Verdex connected to a consoleLCD-16, along with a Samsung
4.3 inch LCD. When I boot up the unit, I am running ckermit on a
linux machine connected through an rs-232 port (ttyS0). I get the
usual, expected boot up info in the kermit window, and I get a
message that Linux is booting on the LCD panel. Then, on both, I get
LOGIN: If I then type my username and password, I get what I expect
in the kermit session, but nothing happens on the LCD display. I am
obviously doing something incredibly stupid, but I'm not sure what it is.

Any suggestions?
Thanks

They are separate login sessions.  Plug in a USB kb to use the LCD.

Is there any way to redirct the output? In other words, to show the
contents of the kermit session on the linux computer on the lcd on
the Gumstix, or to direct the entry from the keyboard on the rs-232
port to the lcd display?

Thanks,
Ed

Not generically. I'm curious, why?
