What kernel? Are you using udev? Using: Linux tigger 2.6.7-1.478smp #1 SMP Thu Jul 8 15:17:25 EDT 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux I just downloaded 2.6.8-1.541 and am going to give it a try. udev is installed and USE_UDEV is set to yes, however I have not made any changes to it from the test3 release. Is this xterm, gnome-terminal or konsole you are seeing this error with? Please also specify the exact rpm version number you use. Thanks, Florian La Roche It isn't limited to local X11 sessions. SSH from external sources end
up with the same error.
Using 'telnet localhost' will result in:
Trying 127.0.0.1 ...
Connected to localhost.
Escape chracter is '^]'.
telnetd: All network ports in use.
Connection closed by foreign host.
# ssh localhost
awm@localhost's password:
Warning: no access to tty (Bad file descriptor).
Thus no job control
in this shell.
And hangs the session.
More notes, this must be a 'leak' of some type. After a reboot I can open 30+ sessions just via xterm, after the system has been up for a while ( in this case 3 days 9 hours ) I can only open more sessions if I close out some of the old ones. This looks like a duplicate of bug #128154. Agreed. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10 Description of problem: There seems to be either a shortage of ttys or somehow ssh/xterms are not able to open the next tty. Opening a new xterm or ssh session after the first couple results in disconnection or the following message: Warning: no access to tty (Bad file descriptor). Thus no job control in this shell. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open four ssh or xterms 2.Try to open a 5th session Actual Results: Warning: no access to tty (Bad file descriptor). Thus no job control in this shell. And you are hung. I have tried it both locally and remotely. Expected Results: You should get a shell prompt Additional info:
