When the system boots and gives me the kdm login screen, I have to first ssh remotely and run these commands chown root:tty /dev/pty* chown root:tty /dev/tty* chmod 666 /dev/null I'd sure like to know what to remerge to fix this problem. hal ? udev ? /dev/null has been complaining for weeks, but I just ignored it. It started complaining about the time I had problems with xrdb: x11-apps/xrdb Available versions: ~1.0.1 ~1.0.2 Installed: none NOW I cannot ignore this problem anymore. idea?
