Hey. I have a problem with bash (the newest version from potato, downloaded and installed with apt-get): Wenn I type <backspace> at an empty prompt or when I press <tab> when the completion is not unique the bash crashes with a segfault. So I think it actually crashes when it "wants to ring the bell".
Other Programs still beep of course (XEmacs, vi..) and an echo '\007' or a C program calling fprintf (stderr, "\a"); works correctly, too. All of the following libraries exist (with correct symbolic links). -->8---- tobi:~# ldd /bin/bash libreadline.so.2 => /lib/libreadline.so.2 (0x40005000) libncurses.so.4 => /lib/libncurses.so.4 (0x40030000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40072000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40075000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x2aaaa000) ----8<-- /etc/kbd/default.map says this (about keycode 14): --8<---- keycode 14 = Delete Delete alt keycode 14 = Meta_Delete shift alt keycode 14 = Meta_Delete ---->8-- and /etc/inputrc says the following: --8<---- set input-meta on set output-meta on ---->8-- I have already posted this question to de.comp.os.unix.linux.misc but Christian Kurz said I should mail to this list.
