[2.5.67-mm4] Can't open pty's

[2.5.67-mm4] Can't open pty's

[J. Hidding]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 750 bytes --]

Hi,

Xterm (nor any other VT) won't run on my freshly compiled 
2.5.67-mm4 kernel. It says:

--
xterm: Error 32, errno 2: No such file or directory
Reason: get_pty: not enough ptys
--

When I look in /dev all the ptys are there. Also dmesg 
gives no strange reading (not on this matter).

I attached my .config and dmesg (it does show earlier 
mentioned weird things about IRQ 12, and a little chatter 
about UDF-fs)

Thanks,

Johan Hidding

PS: I haven't got strace compiled yet, but when I tried:
--
# emerge -p strace/strace-4.4-r1

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies   emerge: create(): aux_get() 
error on log/strace-4.4-r1; aborting...
--
I don't know if this is a kernel error, or something 
Gentoo

Your problem is:
#
# Non-8250 serial port support
#
CONFIG_SERIAL_CORE=y
CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS=y
CONFIG_UNIX98_PTY_COUNT=64

Increase CONFIG_UNIX98_PTY_COUNT to 2048 or thereabouts.

Apparently you now need to mount the devpts filesystem on /dev/pts.

Red Hat 8's /etc/fstab has

	none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
