With regards to uptime and users, I have noticed that in SuSE 8, the amount of xterm windows I have open dictates how many users show up in "who" or "uptime".... ie: kreator:/tmp/fluxbox-0.1.10 # uptime 10:08am up 9 days, 15:03, 4 users, load average: 0.31, 0.43, 0.25
kreator:/tmp/fluxbox-0.1.10 # who influx tty1 Jul 14 11:01 influx pts/0 Jul 14 13:48 influx pts/1 Jul 14 13:54 influx pts/2 Jul 14 21:03
This is 1 login and 3 xterm windows open. I'm assuming that the 'pts/0,1,2' etc stand for something different, but why would it show up as 4 users logged in. Doesn't seem very accurate to me. I use Fluxbox for a WM btw.
Any thoughts about this?
I think pts are virtual terminals. However, it is not strange. If you login 32 times you have 32 users logged in, even if it is always the same. I think that xterm are mapped to a virtual terminal only since suse 8. (at least, I did not notice this happening on 7.1). Praise
