Yesterday I were bored. So I took the linux sources and I began think­ing at some inter­est­ing modify I could make.

So, ehm, well… I did some­thing unusual. I’m proud to present the really-very-most-useless-patch-of-the-year:

Add a boot option “logonum” that allow the user to choose how many pen­guins to show in the frame­buffer at startup. If no “logonum” is spec­i­fied, it shows as many pen­guins as the online cpus (the default behavior).

The patch can be found here: http://lugbari.org/~kratorius/patches/give-me-more-penguins-2.6.19.patch
This patch applies to 2.6.19 vanilla sources.
