From 77bf2bab91e4e7df361963451c7b9a803516438c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@computergmbh.de> Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2007 03:04:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Remove CONFIG_VT_UNICODE Since default_utf8 is already a sysfs attribute, having an extra CONFIG_VT_UNICODE compile-time option is redundant, since sysfs attributes can be set at boot and run time. Also let Linux VCs default to UTF-8 (as per the discussion at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/6/99).
