Version: (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources KDM doesn't display any confirm dialog when the user click on the show console menu. This behaviour is not user friendly and it must be fixed.

blah, bullshit. i should go to sleep. :}
the original plan was just outputting a message telling how to get back to x on the text console after switching to it. however, that poses some technical problems, so maybe a confirmation dialog with a verbose help message would be a good idea, indeed. it's not a particularly commonly used function anyway ... btw, you can configure away the menu point entirely.
SVN commit 1097271 by ossi: always show confirmation dialog before switching to console mode the dialog also contains instructions on getting back to text mode.
