Hello,

I am trying to ssh to g...@github.com, and I get the error
"PTY allocation request failed on channel 0"

I tried ssh -vv ..., but did not see anything meaningful.

googling I found references to devices ptmx and pts.

There is a /dev/ptmx.  I can see it if I do ls /dev/ptmx but not if I
do ls /dev  (why?).

I also tried mount /dev/pts (as shown on google), but it failed
because /etc/fstab
does not have a corresponding entry.

Am I going in the right direction, or something else the problem?

Thank you,

Mirko
