These are the ttyv#'s I have now [pbh@mercury] /dev $ ls ttyv ttyv0 ttyv1 ttyv2 ttyv3 I thought making ttyv4 would be as simple as ./MAKEDEV ttyv4 but [pbh@mercury] /dev $ ./MAKEDEV ttyv4 ttyv4 - no such device name [pbh@mercury] /dev $ I obviously do not understand the process. If someone could help, Id appreciate it. I want to make ttyv's for a total of 11 virtual terminals Thanks Patrick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
