My who doesn't display terminal entries

My who doesn't display the terminals, only ttyX. Is there anything I can do to fix that? Thanks in advance (using aterm in fluxbox).

Edit: Example:

bash-3.1# who
matrix tty6 2006-08-01 07:08
bash-3.1#

I don't have aterm on my system, but maybe you can check the man page and see if there is an option like "-ls" to indicate that this invocation is a "login session". (rxvt and some other terminal emulators have this option.)

If aterm has something like that, try starting aterm with that option and see if it fixes things.

Cheers.
