This doesn't sound right, but that ioctl is defined as _IO('T', 3) if that makes any more sense. The reason that this must be a kernel bug is because agetty works flawlessly in an identically-configured 2.4.2 kernel, and even a 2.4.3 kernel with the debugging tokens defined. I'd be glad to give any help that I could. -- -Steven In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. -- George Orwell - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
