Does anyone have a fix for this? I'm using the latest version of potato with kernel 2.2.3 and glibc 2.1.1
Since my machine has few users I just did the following cd /dev ln -s pts/0 ln -s pts/1 . . . ln -s pts/n I did this for pts/0-5. If you have more users than say 10 at a time, you may want to find another solution.
