14 Ok, that was another
15 question waiting to
16 be asked. Thanks for
17 preemptively
18 answering that.
19 Apart from that the
20 selinux part of udev
21 won't compile, so
22 it's quite useless
23 anyway, regardless
24 of how udev mounts
25 /dev. Well, back to
26 the original
27 question. How do I
28 get selinux AND
29 pty's working so a
30 normal user can
31 start an xterm? I
32 cannot use devfs, I
33 cannot use udev, so
34 it's back to good
35 old static /dev, but
36 that results in
37 errors like:
38 xterm: Error 32,
39 errno 2: No such
40 file or directory
41 Reason: get_pty: not
42 enough ptys.

44 regards,
