It just flood my screen every now and again (It usually happens when the
harddisk is accessing heavily)
I tracked it down to /usr/src/linux/drivers/char/tty_io.c. It is made the
following function.
static int check_tty_count(struct tty_struct *tty, const char *routine)
I'm pretty much ignorant about linux source code. I don't know the
significance of the above function. (can somebody explain it to me?)
I am using 1.3.57 (a very old but stable revision). Is the problem due to
the hardware I have or the kernel itself? What should I look for? I have
been using this version for quite some time now (four five months) and
this happened to me since a few days ago.
Thanks.
