[chimerax-users] error when save sessions of chimeraX in Ubuntu

[Greg Couch]

I use Ubuntu 17.04 and haven't seen that error.  Which version of Ubuntu 
are you using?  Chances that the "Inappropriate ioctl"  is unrelated to 
session saving (Error 25 is from something checking if a file is 
actually a terminal and our code doesn't do that directly).  Was there a 
traceback in the log window in addition to the error message?  If so, 
please send it to us.  And please tell us if was the session file saved 
correctly, ie., can you reopen it in ChimeraX?  With that information, 
we'll have a better idea of how to fix it.

     Regards,

     Greg
