KEITHLEY" Sender: owner-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Throwing caution to the wind I've just overwritten my 2.1R system with the 2.2-960501-SNAP. Things I note thus far: # ls -l /dev/tty crw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 1, 0 5 Jun 10:16 /dev/tty really wants to be: crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 1, 0 5 Jun 10:16 /dev/tty otherwise xterm cannot open it. Breaking xterm is a Bad Thing (tm). There's another problem with xterm not being able to get a pty that I'll have to look into. Also, now when I try to `vipw` I get this error: # vipw vipw: /stand/ee: Undefined error: 0 vipw: /etc/master.passwd: unchanged There is no /stand/ee. Obviously this was not a problem in 2.1R. -- Kaleb KEITHLEY
