Hi all,

I've just installed XFree86 version 3.3 on one of my 
disks. Everything went smoothly and seems to be working 
correctly. I am however getting a rather strange error 
message. 

Whenever I start an xterm using buttons in my window
manager (fvwm2-95) the xterm comes up with the 
message '/dev/ttyp_ : Operation denied' on the first
line of the window. On the second line I get my normal
prompt and the xterm works correctly in every other way.

Anybody got any idea of what is going on?

Thanks in advance,
Erik
