I would suggest (after X bombs) running: ~ %% sudo lsof /dev/tty11 Password: COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME getty 243 root 0u CHR 4,11 990 /dev/tty11 getty 243 root 1u CHR 4,11 990 /dev/tty11 getty 243 root 2u CHR 4,11 990 /dev/tty11 (no, I'm NOT telling you what I typed there...) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
