Sounds like pseudo-terminals (ptys) aren't working. Verify by trying some non-X11 programs that require ptys such as ssh (inbound), script or screen. I bet they don't work either. Did you build your own kernel? Did you include pty support? Or maybe you need to mount the /dev/pts filesystem? -- Bob Miller K<bob> kbobsoft software consulting http://kbobsoft.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ EUGLUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.euglug.org/mailman/listinfo/euglug
