I Attempted to Replace Shell with Terminal in /NextApps to order to get Terminal to run when doing a Make from IB. This did NOT work. So... I put the Shell back in /NextApps with the right permissions and now cannot open a new window. The image looks ok (not corrupt) but new from the Shell menu doesnt do anything. A new pty is allocated but I dont get any window. Eventually I get a message back saying all ptys are in use. What could be the problem? Appreciate any comment.
