accessing tty_struct structure of a terminal(say tty1)
 
hi everybody,
i generally have to do programming on gui terminal(shell) rather than the textbased terminal.In gui terminal when i insert any device driver code i dont get any printk messages on the console,but everytime i have to type dmesg to see all the messages.while in text mode(CTR-ALT-F1)
i get all the printk and other debug messages on the consoleitself.

so i want to tweak the write function of the pts driver a little sotht i can ghet the expected results.but for tht i have to access the tty_struct structrue corresponding to the pts that i m working on.

i tried ptsdev_get_tty(int number) function ,but i m getting message
UNDEFINED SYMBOL ptsdev_get_tty,
though this symbol is defined in System.map of my system.

i m using FC3 with kernel version 2.6.9.11

so any idea howt o access the struct tty_struct of pts that i m wroking on

any input is appreciated
waiting for reply
rakesh
