Fixing Terminal TTY errors


Say you were working in an unspecified but extremely buggy beta SDK. Say you suddenly started encountering "could not open a new pseudo tty" errors whenever you tried opening a new terminal windows. There's not much help out there on the net for this extremely hypothetical situation. (You might also run into Xcode memory panics of a similar nature.) So what do you do? Logging out and back in won't fix the problem but a good fresh reboot will. If you should find that you're dealing with Leopard instability after running the EHSDK (that is, the extremely hypothetical SDK), put your memory issues to rest.

I can't believe it took me this long to stumble upon your hypothetical thread.

I'll ditto Bryan's comment.

I have to say, this hypothetical experience sounds an awful lot like another hypothetical experience that I've just not been having.

Good thing we have sources like Erica to deal with such highly hypothetical situations as when dealing with the EHSDK.
