Re: Pseudo port
Hello Peter,
ok. Thank you for your diagostic. I'll Cc to debian-hams@lists.debian.org.
Your kernel lacks BSD style pty support (/dev/ttypX, /dev/ptypX).
Our new linux ax25 apps/tools have also unix98 support.
Obviously it's now really time to get it packaged for the various
distributions. We plan a few minor changes. But we all know, software
development is a continuing progress that will never end.
You'll find details in compiling and installing at
