List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi all, I seem to be posting to this list a lot today, but this is the last one :) I've been playing around with the later 2.5 kernels and now the 2.6.0-test kernels also. They seem to work pretty fine, and they are starting to look more and more stable. The only two problems I have with them is that for some reason I no longer have a system beep ... like in bash when backspacing to the end, receiving messages on irc ... that sort of thing. The other problem I am having is that if I try and run screen, or login to my box with ssh or something, it tells me that there are no more ptys left. I am running devfs and perhaps this is a devfs issue, but its only been the case in the 2.5 kernels after 2.5.59 I think. in my config, I'm choosing devfs, have it mount on boot, and not choosing the devpts filesystem. If any one has any ideas on these two problems I'd love to hear from you. Thanks Mick -- --- Michael D.
