Re: [Sheflug] Process locking



Hello Chris.

Thank you for your prompt reply. Unfortunately it hasn't made any difference!

Booting up (to clear the system), logging on as root, and running lsof
/dev/ttyS0 gives a blank.

Then trying to start tnt gives the "Device locked by process" error, with a
different process number each time I try it.

Running lsof /dev/ttyS0 again, gives the pid as the process number. I then
kill it and trying to run the program again just gives the error message with
another number. It's the same if I use ps auwx | grep (followed by the process
number).

Similar result logging on as myself.

No other programs are running.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Keith
