And have sysfs mounted on /sys or > somewhere? Sorry for the false alarm. It happened after I installed 010 and by mistake also commented "export ACTION=ADd" in rc.udev since I'm on Slackware. BTW, I'm not sure if it's a problem, but udev created ptmx with the following permissions: crw------- 1 root root 5, 2 Dez 23 20:31 ptmx devfs creates it with: crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 5, 2 Dez 23 20:34 ptmx devs-2.3.1-noarch-18.tgz from Slackware: crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 2 Abr 21 1999 ptmx Yesterday, when I booted with only udev screen didn't work as an user (No more PTYs). I got it working changing to 666. But then for some reason ssh and rxvt didn't work as an user, and I went back to devfs. I'll try to see what was wrong with the others. --=20 http://www.pervalidus.net/contact.html ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
