Package: fgetty
Version: 0.6-3
Severity: important
Hi!
I am trying to use fgetty here on my system, but without success.
The error messages that appear are:
could not chown/chmod tty device
(the above message is repeated a lot of times)
INIT: Id "2" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
And then I get an unusable console.
With mingetty and getty it's working normally.
The config on inittab is:
2:2345:respawn:/sbin/fgetty tty2
If changing to "2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2" or
"2:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2" it works.
Thank you very much!
Best regards,
Nelson

Closing, although we did not find out the real cause, unfortunately.
Thanks, Gerrit.
