Laptop with AMD K6 running Debian sid

xterm works w/ stock 2.6.17-2-486

with stock 2.6.22-1-486 attempting to start xterm gives:

xterm: Error 32, errno 2: No such file or directory
Reason: get_pty: not enough ptys
I have upgraded almost anything that needed it that would have comeafter the 2.6.17-2-486 kernels. Any of that upgrading may have causedthe xterm problem.
TIA for any more ideas.

Could someone please e-mail me (or post to http://pastebin.mozilla.org )
a copy of /boot/config-2.6.22-1-486 ?

I want to see if I have this problem with 2.6.22 also, but I need to usethe default config file.
