Hi, all, I've seen posts to this list about this problem before, but they don't seem to point to my problem. I'm running a Gentoo system, and it thus has the current stable ebuild of brltty which at this time is version 3.8.
After installing an X server and Gnome, the following line appears in syslog once every 5 seconds: Aug 21 20:33:38 [hostname] brltty[921]: GPM open error: Inappropriate ioctl for device (Yep, 921's the pid of brltty). Dave, you mentioned that you thought this problem was cleared up as of version 3.8. Am I doing something else wrong? The problem definitely appears to be coming from brltty, not from gpm. The log messages keep flowing to syslog regardless of what virtual console currently has focus. If it's of interest to anyone in solving this problem, I'm starting brltty from /etc/inittab as follows: brl::sysinit:/bin/brltty Everything seems to work fine... it just makes for messy syslogs. :) ?And that's the part I'd like to fix. Any suggestions? Thanks for any help anyone can provide. Keith _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
