Top Forums Programming What is the difference between console-based and xwindow-based application? Post 302311585 by pludi on Wednesday 29th of April 2009 05:23:05 AM

What's the difference between a book and a graphic novel?

Console applications don't have any fancy stuff and are (for the most part) completely keyboard-driven.
X11 applications need an X server and additional libraries, and can/should be able to handle both keyboard and pointer (mouse/tablet/...) events.
A console application can run in X11 though a "terminal emulation" (xterm/konsole/gnome-terminal/...) that will translate ASCII characters to images. An X11 application won't run without an X11 server.

NAME
iscc - serial communications interface SYNOPSIS
controller iscc0 at isa0 DESCRIPTION
An onboard Zilog 8530 DUART provides AXPvme-based Single Board Computers with console (CON) and auxiliary (AUX) serial communications ports. Both serial communications ports can operate at baud rates from B50 to B38400, excluding B134 (see tty(7)). On AXPvme Single Board Computers configured with a graphics head as the system console, the CON serial communications port (/dev/tty01) is available for use by application programs as an additional communications port. In the absence of a graphics head, the CON serial communications port (/dev/console) becomes the system console. When used as the serial system console, the CON serial communications port always operates at 9600 BPS, 8-bits, and no parity. Regardless of system console, the AUX serial communications port (/dev/tty00) is always available for use by application programs. RESTRICTIONS
Data communications equipment attached to the CON serial communications port must be set to 9600 BPS, 8-bits, no parity when configured as the serial system console. The iscc terminal driver enforces this restriction. No modem control is supported for either the CON or AUX serial communications ports. FILES
