Hi,
Does anyone have the correct permissions for /dev/console handy. Programs
like xconsole (or xterm -C) have never worked for me.
At the moment, /dev/console is
crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 0 Apr 23 11:09 /dev/console
which is obviously wrong. All I really want is for console messages to
come up in one of my xterms when in X (which I start with 'startx', not
xdm).
This is on a 2.1-stable kernel with "XSERVER" and "UCONSOLE" compiled in.
Couldn't find anything about this in the man pages.
Cheers.
N
