Hi Stew,

Before executing the tests you'll need to edit TESTROOT/tetexec.cfg
and change:

VSX_TERMIOS_TTY
VSX_TERMIOS_LOOP
VSX_MASTER_TTY
VSX_MASTER_LOOP

There are helpful messages for each option in the file itself.  Last
time I ran the test suites with a null modem cable (quite a few months
ago now, all but one of the tty related tests that previously failed
passed instead).

Regards,

Chris.
