Package: xen-tools
Version: 3.9-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hello,
I created a Fedora Core 7 image and soon had problems with users pseudo
terminals, for example screen was
always exiting with "Sorry could not find a PTY" error message and
gnome-terminal not running; running as root user
gave no problems.
I found that I need to manually add this line to /etc/fstab in domU:
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620 0 0
after mounting (mount /dev/pts) all is running fine.
Please find attached a tiny patch.
Thank you for your good work.
Ciao.
Giovanni.
