This variable can be altered via sysfs. If the variable is properly set, this should mimimize breakage of UTF-8 encoded consoles when doing a reset or echo -e '\033c' and of newly opened/allocated consoles. This is based from patches by Jan Engelhardt and Paul LeoNerd Evans. Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas Cc: Jan Engelhardt Cc: Paul LeoNerd Evans Cc: "H.
