Hi

I have a question regarding to vo_fbdev driver.

it does:

        if (fb_tty_fd >= 0 && ioctl(fb_tty_fd, KDSETMODE, KD_GRAPHICS) < 0) {
                if (verbose > 0)
                        printf(FBDEV "Can't set graphics mode: %s\n", strerror(errno));
                close(fb_tty_fd);
                fb_tty_fd = -1;
        }

with /dev/tty

What it this good for or need for?
It looks like this code locks my console preventing me from 
switching to other console while movie playback and
also i cannot see mesages about processor usage etc.
