MC doesn't give a subshell for normal users

2003-06-26 Thread Степан Кузнецов
Hello. The bug is: when I enter mc as a normal user, it doesn't open a subshell. Instead of it, it just shows a '$' symbol and I cannot toggle the bars: it says: Error. Not an xterm or Linux console; the panels cannot be toggled. 'tty' reports a normal (not pseudo) TTY. == info == $ echo

As for the subshell problem, I think it's a problem with pseudoterminals. I suggest that you use UNIX98 pseudoterminals and mount /dev/pts. Make Thanx. In my system /dev/pts was not mounted, but was just a directory of /dev. I believe you are the first person ever who reported Not an xterm
