hay, this something i can't find in google:
i had a gentoo with udev+devfs, and almost everything ok.
now i put RC_DEVICE_TARBALL="no" and RC_DEVFSD_STARTUP="no" and now i can't have any xterm or eterm working except for root. lsof says that xterm and eterm open /dev/vc/2 (/dev/tty$X are simlinks to /dev/vc/$X ). i'm in the tty group.
ls -l /dev/vc/2: owner=rod (me) group=tty mode=600 major=4 minor=2
tried:
recompile the kernel without BSD pty. add GROUP="tty" to all thing that seems tty in udev/rules put mode=666 in /dev/vc/* re-emerge xterm & eterm echo "hola" > /dev/vc/2 returns "hola"
