Subject: Grass Monitors in Solaris 2.x
I know that some will not care,
I know that grass needs to be cut periodically,
I know that grass is illegal in this country,
but for those who still want to use GRASS...Don't know If this has been shared in the past but,
I've needed this for some time and finally resolved it.
This will create working Grass Monitors under Solaris 7
and Solaris 8. Of course, it assumes you already have
the Solaris 2.x grass code in place.
A note of caution, in the /devices/pseudo directory I
found pts@0:1 thru 64, so I started my stuff at the next
higher number, i.e. 65. These new files also need to have
644 permissions (in /devices/pseudo) and the links to them
from /dev need to be lrwxrwxrwx.
this does work on the console and on Xterminals using
remote0 as the monitor name.
good luck!
