    I have not connected it to a keyboard or a display, since the server is
    hosted in a colo site, and I only ever access it remotely. Like I said in
    my email, I never used to see those messages, until recently, when I moved
    the server to the colo site, and didn't give it a keybaord or display.

    I also commented out the tty lines, so it seems I am not the only one
    to see and fix this behaviour.

    Thanks for your response.
