I'm running XFree86 3.12 on NetBSD -current for i386.
Since about 960317, xterm's abort with the following error:
xterm: Error 23, errno 25: Inappropriate ioctl for device
If I return to my March 8 kernel, things work fine. Tried compiling new
xterm from latest source, but same problem. The only options I think could
have anything to do with this follow:
options COMPAT_NOMID # compatibility with 386BSD, BSDI, NetBSD 0.8,
options COMPAT_09 # NetBSD 0.9,
options COMPAT_10 # NetBSD 1.0,
options COMPAT_11 # NetBSD 1.1,
#options COMPAT_43 # and 4.3BSD
options TCP_COMPAT_42 # TCP bug compatibility with 4.2BSD
#options COMPAT_SVR4 # binary compatibility with SVR4
#options COMPAT_IBCS2 # binary compatibility with SCO and ISC
options COMPAT_LINUX
Now then, given that nobody else has been complaining here about this,
I wonder if anyone has pointers as to where to look for this type of
fault?
Gary
