------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-22 05:20 ------- Well I suppose the daemon should be closing STDIN no matter what then. Maybe it's less dangerous if it's not /dev/console? Maybe not? I think /dev/vc/ is just devfs, but I guess tty1 is the non-devfs equivalent. That's a real vc though, what if it's a virtual terminal, like /dev/pts/0 ? Then you see apcupsd holding it open. And what if you close that virtual terminal, then open a new one that ends up at /dev/pts/0 ? You don't see apcupsd holding it open. Hey! Maybe it's because of apcupsd holding stdin open that I can't just Ctrl-D/exit the terminal if I've restarted apcupsd, I have to actually kill the rxvt (terminal emulator window). (to be more precise, I did ssh somewhere to a user account, su to root, restart apcupsd, can exit root shell there, can't exit user shell and return from ssh session) Yeah well anyway enough of my blabbering, the upstream author is working on a fix :o) PS - thanks for pointing this bug out. When it gets fixed upstream I'll make sure it gets fixed in Mandrake. No guarantees that'll be before 9.1 though. I'm not sure whether just disabling the DEBUG is really safe, that was just to test something to make sure we understood why you were seeing the problem, I've asked the author though if disabling it is safe. If so maybe we can do that. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: __UNKNOWN__ status: CLOSED creation_date: description: please see bug report #1489 same problem. resolution should be the same as well.
