How do I capture the information on the screen to a file please? I have Linux 2.6 and Fedora 2 with speakup.
In addition to the other ideas folks have tossed out here, as long as your user has permissions to read the device /dev/vcs# (where the "#" is the number of the virtual console you're working on...usually #1), you can just treat it as a file: cat /dev/vcs1 > dump.txt If you want the screen's attributes too, you can access /dev/vcsa1 It might require some reformatting, but it's an easy way to treat the screen as a file. -tim _______________________________________________ Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
