Hello,
I was editing package.keywords on ctrl,alt f1 vith vim
I know I pressed a ctrl- ? (opps it may have been f or s) & the terminal has totaly locked :-(
I tried the usual, Esc etc, I tried everything.
I did a ps ax
2762 tty1 S+ 0:00 vi package.keywords
followed by a
kill 2762
It still stays alive !
followed by a
kill -9 2762
That killed it but my terminal is still frozen.
I remember someting about terminal ctrl codes freezing output in one of my linux books but cannot find it again. I could be wrong but I suspect I just have to ctrl - something to unlock it.
Any ideas ?
Dave
