Subject: [9fans] plan9port: 9term won't connect
Date: Wed, 20 Oct 2004 10:13:41 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041020151341.GA1466167@hiwaay.net> (raw)
I have plan9port installed under Fedora Core 2. When I run 9term from a bash
shell I get this:
sstbpc65$ 9term
9term: no ptys
The frame of the 9term window opens, then closes as the error message
comes up. When I run strace on 9term I get this:
...
open("/dev/ptya0", O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENXIO (No such device or
address)
open("/dev/ptya1", O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENXIO (No such device or
address)
open("/dev/ptya2", O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENXIO (No such device or
address)
...
open("/dev/pty80", O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/dev/pty90", O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
write(2, "9term: no ptys\n", 159term: no ptys
) = 15
exit_group(0) = ?
No ptys? Nonsense:
sstbpc65$ ls /dev/pty* |wc
256 256 2816
sstbpc65$ ll /dev/ptya0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 2, 176 Feb 23 2004 /dev/ptya0
sstbpc65$ ll /dev/ptyzf
crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 2, 175 Feb 23 2004 /dev/ptyzf
So it's running through all the pty devices and can't find any of them.
Any suggestions on how to fix this? I have plan9port running on two
Debian machines and I've never encountered this problem before.
