Yes, I am working with an xterm, could not verify with e.g. rxvt since this does not run. Isn't there a hurd package of rxvt? Could not find it on alpha.gnu.org or debian mirrors.
This happens in X: Issueing "tty" I receive "/dev/ttyp0" in one xterm and "/dev/ttyp1" in the other xterm. So these seem to be the pseudo terminals. Issuing "showtrans /dev/tty" I get "/hurd/magic tty" as a result. When typing "file /dev/tty" I get the "Device not configured" message. This happens on the console: Command "file /dev/tty" yields here "/dev/tty: character special (0/0)" so gnupg does not complain on the console. -- Martin Stenzel [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP-/GnuPG-encrypted mail appreciated, public key (ID: >>B57C61DC<<) at: >>http://141.20.1.38/~h0444xyv/GPGkey_martin.stenzel<<
