Sometimes i hate Linux

I've upgraded my Kernel 2.4.26 to 2.6.9 because i have a SiS mainboard and the SiS-support in 2.4.26 .. aehm .. yes .. g .. in any case.. after it, i start getting a couple of errors like:

[dope@painless:~]% xterm

xterm: Error 14, errno 21: Is a directory

Reason: spawn: open() failed on /dev/tty

[dope@painless:~]%  man xterm

Error executing formatting or display command.

System command /bin/bzip2 -c -d /usr/X11/man/man1/xterm.1x.gz | /usr/bin/less -is exited with status 256.

[dope@painless:~]%    uname -sr

Linux 2.6.9

[dope@painless:~]%    

A Bug? No! pebcak. I have set CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS=y in my config but i've forgotten to recreating /dev/tty *narf*.

[dope@painless:~]%  cat /etc/rc.d/rc.local

echo "Running mknod on /dev/tty* .."

/bin/rm -rf /dev/tty

/bin/mknod -m 666 /dev/tty c 5 0

Problem solved
