I'm trying to get a program (liveice) to run in the background, however
the shell always tells me that the process was suspended due to tty
output, etc. I've done the obvious:
nohup program &
and when it reported that it suspended the process because it needed a
tty for output, I tried various redirections:
nohup program > /dev/null 2>&1 &
nohup program >& /dev/null &
and so on. Is there a way to make the process think it has a tty when
it really doesn't? The second cmd actually works under linux, but then
linux won't fit on a flash disk too easily.
Thanks,
Dan
