Samium did not elaborate what he means under "loses the tty",
but perhaps I can report something related.

Sometimes (not very often), after I do "ssh somehost",
the resulting bash runs without a some controlling terminal
function. Running "cat" from that shell (on somehost)
yields a cat that cannot be interrupted with a signal
from keyboard. ^D works. "stty -a" shows isig set.
tty shows PTY slave correctly.

This is related to 2.4.7 and SMP, I think.

     Ok, need to make my point clear:

  time X: App receives keypresses, and shows its progresses (various numbers updating, etc...)

  time X+1: Keypresses are not fed to application,
but are displayed on the vconsole, application doesnt
update the screen, but is perfectly functional in all
other aspects...

sorry for inconvenience...

Apps losing control tty...

[Samium Gromoff]

prerequisities: 2.4.7-vanille
     Recently (i cant recall when), i realised, that
some _different_ applications (like mikmod or something)
 are losing tty. I start these apps like that:
mikmod <random stuff skipped> > /dev/ttyXX 2>/dev/ttyXX < /dev/ttyXX &
and after some period of time, they loses the
tty, but this is not a 100% probability.

 I think it is relevant only for 2.4.7 in my situation...

thanks in advance...
