Description seather 2005-03-21 11:45:50 UTC

I looked a bit through documentation for /etc/issue, and it showed that to display the domain name you need to use \o, however on all my gentoo systems it is set as \O in /etc/issue. After I have changed this to \o the problem seems to be fixed.

Reproducible: Always

I haven't found an exact descriptor for \O yet however, I have no idea what the
difference is between \O and \o.
