On f3 and f4 there is indeed a terminal (/dev/tty0),
so I will try commenting out this code.
But I have one little question before I do so.
Since I didn't write this code (I was only told to
make it run on a PC), why is this code in there if it
can be commented out? Or is it a vital part of
programming for UNIX?
