Hi list,

i get the following message on starting konsole in kde 302, 

konsole: chownpty failed for device /dev/ptyp1::/dev/ttyp1.
       : This means the session can be eavesdroped.
       : Make sure konsole_grantpty is installed in
       : /usr/local/bin/ and setuid root.

konsole_grantpty is installed and setuid root on my system
konsole is running as "user", shouldn't it run as root like xterm 
should i ignore it??
