Check /kernel/drv/options.conf; it is the only place I know of
which stores "defaults" for terminals.

So it is a particular set of devices which has problmes? Then
check to see if there's anything strange in /dev/pts (strange links,
strange ling targers)

No, there's no template for each device; is this problem
persistant across reboots?

Does the software run and claims to own some of the devices?
