Summary: Problem with the /dev/ptmx file Kernel Version: 2.6.0-test2 Status: NEW Severity: high Owner: bugme-janitors@lists.osdl.org Submitter: areversat@tuxfamily.org CC: areversat@tuxfamily.org
Distribution: Gentoo GNU/Linux Hardware Environment: P4 2.0Ghz 512 mo ram, Ati Radeon 9000 Mobility Software Environment: Linux 2.6.0-test2 Problem Description: When i want to open an Eterm or an xterm (whatever until it uses a virtual terminal) it fails saying granpt(4) failed. I've traced the program and it seems that it calls /dev/ptmx well but that ptmx doesn't create the right entry in /dev/pts. Note : I don't have /dev/pts support in my kernel but it works with a 2.4 like that... And i also tried with it compiled in and it didn't work either.
Steps to reproduce: For me you only have to open something using a virtual terminal. It may be a configuration problem but i searched and didn't find where it was...
