pts/X counts on

[Miek Gieben]

Hello,

I'm seeing to following (obscure) thing happening:

I open an xterm, it gets the pseudo term: pts/1
I close the term and open a new one: pts/2, in stead
of pts/1.

Like this:

USER     TTY      FROM   LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
miekg    pts/1    arena  19:57    3.00s  0.24s  0.11s vi bla
miekg    pts/4    arena  20:03    0.00s  0.06s  0.00s w
$ logout

login again:

USER     TTY      FROM   LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
miekg    pts/1    arena  19:57    3.00s  0.25s  0.12s vi bla
miekg    pts/5    arena  20:03    0.00s  0.05s  0.00s w
        ^^^^^^^

It just counts on.... 

I'm using devfs on 2.6.4-rc3, I first noticed this in 2.6.3.
(all 2.6.4-rcX have it),

Does anybody know why this is happening?

grtz Miek
