Hello all, I recently upgraded the kernel on my laptop to 2.6.14-r5, as well as Xorg, and many other packages. Since this change I cannot run an xterm anymore. I seem to recall this happening to me years ago, but I do not remember the cause.
When I start X, all is well, and everything runs as it should, except for term
programs. Eterm hangs there, but instead of a prompt, I get "press <esc> to
exit". konsole and {a,x}term don't even show up, although I suspect they are
just starting then stopping immediately.
I do have psuedo terminals in my kernel, and in fact the config is exactly as
it was with the old kernel.
Any ideas how to troubleshoot this? If you want to see my config file or
something else just ask.
Thanks,
-d
