I need to (occasionally) automatically drop out of X11 mode, recompile something, and then reboot.
I can drop out of X11 with "init 3", works fine. I use "chvt 1" to ensure I am on virtual terminal 1 My recompile and reboot also work.
The piece that doesnt work is:
make | tee $LOGFILE
I was expecting the output (stdout) to be virtual terminal 1. My LOGFILE has all commands in it from my successful recompile but I dont see anything on virtual terminal 1.
How do I get the output of my make to show on the console and also in my logfile?
Thanks,
Jerry
