I finally found the time to track down this one. It seems to be a
problem with grantpt() on hpux. I'm not 100% sure but just comment
out the HAVE_GRANTPT definition in config.h after running configure
and everything should be hunky dory...
Best regards
Roy.

I vote for marking INVALID, if this isn With KDE 3.1 konsole still does not work on HPUX. Konsole starts fine but shows just an empty window without any prompt. I consider the grantpty hack of config.h mentioned above to be an appropriate workaround. Let us just close this one, there aren't many left using hpux on the desktop anyway. I switched to linux years ago... r. |

There is an oddity with the initialization of the pty the call to grantpt in TEPty:openPty is successful but doesn't change the ownership of the pty: 47 royd@joseph:~/src/kde2/kdebase-2.1/konsole/> ll /dev/pts/20 crw--w---- 1 royd staff 157 0x000014 Mar 15 09:03 /dev/pts/20 According to the documentation the gid should be changed to tty by grantpt. The documentation has a warning about possible problems if the caller has installed a custom signal handler trapping SIGCHLD but I've been experimenting with this with no success. I also tried to hack the code to enable the use of the konsole_grantpty but that doesn't work either. Regards r. (Submitted via bugs.kde.org)
