[PLUG] mingetty question


I ran the command ps aux and among the processes listed was:

root       450  0.0  0.2  1060  380 tty5     S     1999   0:00 /sbin/mingetty tt

This is listed a few times as tty4 tty3 etc. What is minigetty? My 
thought is from when I plugged in the keyboard and logged on and 
then I logged off but unplugged the keyboard.  Can I just kill these 
with no adverse affects?

Tom
