Subject: [gentoo-user]  kconsole lost PTYs
Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2006 18:20:04 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20060627T201034-734@post.gmane.org> (raw)

Hello,

Strange occurance this one. Booted up a laptop (kde) and got these error
messages, one for each terminal session:

" Kconsole is unable to open a PTY (pseudo teletype). It is likely that this
is due to an incorrect configuration of the PTY devices. Kconsole needs to
have read/write access to the PTY devices."

Upon acknowledgement of each error (popUP) my kconsole sessions disappeared....
I can ssh into the system to fix the problem, but, I'm not sure what would
have changed?

Any ideas on this one? Why did it show up now? I have recently upgraded 
xorg and migrated KDE from monolithic to kde-meta. But all worked fine
following these upgrades.


James
