- You don't must change space.c. Space.c is compiled with -DMERGE flag
- (see /etc/conf/define.d/kernel) and hence NPTY is set to PTC_UNITS.
- PTC_UNITS is defined in /etc/conf/tmp/config.h, which is created
- during kconfig and uses the actual value.
- But you probably forgot to change the /etc/conf/cf.d/mdevice file,
- replace 16 with 32 in these lines:
-
- ptx ocrwi icto ptx 0 4 1 16 -1
- pty ocrwi ico ptc 0 9 1 16 -1
-
-
- BTW, I wrote a simple shell script to accomplish this sometime ago.
- These script you can find on ftp.prz.tu-berlin.de, it is
- /pub/pc/isc/XFree86/make32ptys.Z
- (There is a binary XFree86 1.1 version for ISC 3.0 too.)
