The good news is that I don't see this issue any more with 2.6.31-rc7 on x86. The bad news is that the first time I reported this issue, for -rc3 or -rc4 I think, I thought it was fixed in -rc5 only to see it reappear in -rc6 on x86 and in -rc5 on ARM. So I'd like to keep this open another week while I run more regression tests on non-x86 platforms. While I don't suspect any arch-specific problems in the pty/tty code, I do suspect timing/race-type problems which are obviously affected by platform speed etc. /Mikael -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-testers" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
