    I have an Ubuntu Server, and when I type who, to see who's connected, I can see that there's a user connected, and instead of being logged to a pts/x, he's connected to hvc0. Is there something to worry about?

    Well the user who's connected on hvc0 is me... But I don't even know how I managed to connect there. lol
