I'm trying to debug fgetty. It's a replacement for getty using dietlibc.
Now it's supposed to run if called like this:
fgetty /dev/tty3
But this fails for me. The relevant code is:
if ((fd=open(tty, O_RDWR, 0))<0 || ioctl (fd, TIOCSCTTY, (void *1)==-1)
error("could not open tty device\n",3);
and this always fails (despite any perms, mine are 666 of /dev/tty3).
The open is OK, it's the ioctl condition that's failing. But I'm damned
if I know where to look for what this is doing.
Any ideas? Google has revealed zilch.
I've tried this before and given up on it (March 2004) - but I don't
like loose ends.
Richard.
