Aterm is by far the best virtual terminal emulater around. ;] Here's a |
| 2 |
bunch of what I had to do to get it to work after emerging: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
# cd /dev/; MAKEDEV ptmx; MAKEDEV pty; cd - |
| 5 |
# mkdir /dev/pts |
| 6 |
# chmod u+s /usr/lib/misc/pt_chown |
| 7 |
# vim /etc/fstab |
| 8 |
--- uncomment the /dev/pts line and prepend 'gid=5' to the |
| 9 |
column which has 'mode=620' in it. So it looks like: |
| 10 |
--- 'none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0' |
| 11 |
--- :wq |
| 12 |
# mount /dev/pts |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
This I believe is a superset of things that have to be done to get the |
| 15 |
aterms to work. For instance I think that the 'MAKEDEV pty' was not |
| 16 |
required. |

This would not have happened except for: |

Special thanks to Aaron Blew for the aterm ebuild. |
