You can use the variable OE_TERMINAL to choose your preferred terminal.
By default it's set to auto and Bitbake figures out what terminal is
available on your system. Please refer to the manual at:
https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.5/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#var-OE_TERMINAL.

Also, is it possible to access bitbake datastore from inside the

devshell(or devpyshell) ?

You cannot access d if you mean that, however, all the variables are
exported to the shell.

Hi,

when running bitbake with a recipe and giving the devshell as a
command bitbake runs the devshell inside xterm, on my other machine it
runs tmux.

looking at the openembedded source code here
https://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core/blob/master/meta/lib/oe/terminal.py

I can see there are multiple classes for terminals that bitbake loop
through, but how can I tell bitbake that I prefer a certain terminal?

devshell(or devpyshell) ?
