Hmm ... They are writeable here (with 1 urxvt running): /dev/pts: total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jan 2 22:27 . drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 3960 Jan 2 22:28 .. crw--w---- 1 michael tty 136, 0 Jan 2 22:36 0 crw--w---- 1 michael tty 136, 1 Jan 2 22:51 1 and with without the writeable bit for group when I also fire a konsole: $ ls -la /dev/pts total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jan 2 22:27 . drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 3960 Jan 2 22:28 .. crw--w---- 1 michael tty 136, 0 Jan 2 22:36 0 crw--w---- 1 michael tty 136, 1 Jan 2 22:52 1 crw------- 1 michael tty 136, 2 Jan 2 22:55 2 So, the konsole seems to run with more restrictions than urxvt? -- Regards, Mick
