When I run something like:
$ konsole -e "sleep 30"
I get this message
Konsole is unable to open a PTY (pseudo teletype). It is likely that this is due to an incorrect configuration of the PTY devices. Konsole needs to have read/write access to the PTY devices.
But if I try to run this:
$ gnome-terminal -e "sleep 30"
Then it is fine, and it does not throw any error.
How can I change the read/write access of the Konsole to the PTY devices?
