Hello,
I've installed gnome-terminal from the sunsite.dk/projects/cygwinports
site with no errors. Unfortunately, when I run gnome-terminal from an
xterm I get the error below:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ gnome-terminal
** (gnome-terminal:3608): WARNING **: Error setting PTY size: Invalid argument.
** (gnome-terminal:3608): WARNING **: Error reading PTY size, using
defaults: Invalid argument.
** (gnome-terminal:3608): WARNING **: Error reading PTY size, using
defaults: Invalid argument.
** (gnome-terminal:3608): WARNING **: Error setting PTY size: Invalid argument.
** (gnome-terminal:3608): WARNING **: Error reading PTY size, using
defaults: Invalid argument.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I do get a gnome-terminal window with no shell prompt (white
background). The menu seems to work fine as I can bring the "edit
current profile" dialog.
Anybody using gnome-terminal in cygwin or seen this error?
Perhaps I have a package incompatibility? I initially installed from
mirrors.kernel.org and then added the sunsite.dk, selected
gnome-terminal only, and it automatically selected a bunch of
dependencies.
So far google haven't revealed any clues. Can anybody provide me with
some hints or clues that would help solve this problem?
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
