Greetings. This identical issue has been previously raised at least by
Thuan Tran <thuan_at_webway.jkoss.com> (9aug96),
Jason Lingohr <lingman_at_parabolis.cyber.com.au> (25jun96),
Greg Veres <gveres_at_espresso.uwaterloo.ca> (25oct95)
so if someone can come up with an answer maybe it can get into the FAQ ?
Xterm will run fine from the command line, but not from the Utilities
menu (button 1). It gets a "Error 14, errno 22: Invalid argument"
error as a result of trying to open /dev/tty and receiving an EINVAL.
I don't see why xterm should be trying to open /dev/tty in any case...
I'm using /usr/openwin/bin/xterm, fvwm-1.24r, CDE and Solaris 2.5.1,
but the others above have been using all sorts of different versions.
What are we doing wrong ? Hasn't someone got a workaround for this ?
