Hello,

me too. Old style pseudo terminals do not work with 2.1.115/SMP, neither
with nor without CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS enabled. xterm, kvt etc. do not work.

strace kvt:

...
open("/dev/ptyp0", O_RDWR) = -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)
open("/dev/ptyp0", O_RDWR) = -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)
open("/dev/ptyp0", O_RDWR) = -1 ENODEV (No such device)
open("/dev/ptyp1", O_RDWR) = -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)
open("/dev/ptyp1", O_RDWR) = -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)
open("/dev/ptyp1", O_RDWR) = -1 ENODEV (No such device)
...

The system is based on Dual-PentiumII, 233MHz,
Gigabyte GA-686LX2 motherboard. The kernel is compiled with
egcs-2.90.29 980515 (egcs-1.0.3 release)

Find the kernel configuration used at http://www.snafu.de/~zahn/autoconf.h
