Description

A terminal can run directly on the Linux console with GPU acceleration through DRM/KMS. It is useful for users who want a graphical-quality terminal outside a full desktop session.

DRM/KMS console applications interact closely with display hardware and input. Test on non-critical sessions first, because display switching or permissions can affect usability.
