Hello,
After a fresh update from 2.0.2 to 3.0 with
GENERIC_LAPTOP as kernel:
$uname -a
NetBSD antBSD 3.0 NetBSD 3.0 (GENERIC_LAPTOP) #0: Mon
Dec 19 01:08:52 UTC 2005

i386

Xorg serving as X-window and blackbox as WM.:
$ pkg_info | grep -i xorg 
xorg-dirs-1.1nb2    Shared X.org directories
xorg-imake-6.9.0    Imake and other utilities from
X.org
xorg-libs-6.9.0nb1  X.org Libraries
xorg-server-6.9.0nb4 X.org X server and related
programs

$ pkg_info | grep -i black
blackbox-0.65.0nb5  Small and fast X11R6 window
manager
bbconf-1.4nb2       Configuration tool for the
blackbox window manager
bbrun-1.3nb3        Run utility for BlackBox


I installed, from the latest pkgsrc, the
multi-gnome-terminal and everything went fine.
But i can't start more than 3 tabbed terminals and
at the last terminal i never get a promt.
I started to search for entries in the logs and
nothing strange was printed in the authlog, messages
or xdm.log

The only thing i found was this:

$tail -20f .xsession-errors 
utmp_update: Current user `s74673' does not match `'
in utmpx entry
utmp_update: Current user `s74673' does not match `'
in utmpx entry
utmp_update: Current user `s74673' does not match `'
in utmpx entry
utmp_update: Current user `s74673' does not match
`1174673*' in utmpx entry
utmp_update: Current user `s74673' does not match
`11174673*' in utmpx entry
Error: unable to fork: Undefined error: 0

I searched the internet and found some topics related
to other terminals but nothing related to this one.

This is strange because i also installed multi-aterm
and it works like a charm.

Is the m-g-t broken or there is something i missed
here?
Is there any pam-kind configuration  that has to be
added?

Reg /T
