KDevelop Debug error
 

Hi,

KDevelop 3.4 on Ubuntu 7.04
When I start the debug session from the IDE, I get an eror saying:

GDB cannot use the tty* or pty* devices.
Check the settings on /dev/tty* and /dev/pty*
As root you may need to "chmod ug+rw" tty* and pty* devices and/or add the user to the tty group using "usermod -G tty username".

I ran chmod and usermod scripts in a terminal window but I still get the same error.

Can anyone help me here ?

I have exact the same problem on ubuntu 8.10 with kdevelop 3.5

is there meanwhile a solution for this?

Yeah...try Code:Blocks. It's heaps better !

o yes, thanks for the hint,
I know code blocks and use it from time to time

but I will will not throw away kdevelop just because the ubuntu integration - is not so good

ok, to be fair, there is no ubuntu integration for kdevelop, it's one of the million peaces of software for ubuntu from the community repo that may or may not work.

but it is not the first time I hear something like use this program because it is better than that one, and the reason for this opinion is because one program works with distribution XY, the other not or not complete.

so, since ubuntu is not my primary system and kdevelop works pretty fine on slackware (and some other distributions) and I just compile and test a few of my programs for ubuntu I prefer to use another debugger like nemiver until I find a real solution for this ubuntu-kdevelop-feature.

solution was to install konsole, which is not under dependencies but under suggested for installation.
