mc works fine when on the con locally. I have spent hours trying to figure out why a console ssh connection to ubuntu (from ubuntu - even the same ubuntu box) results in the first (2) key (any key) depressions being ignored until a 3rd key (any key) is depressed and all characters are echoed. this is true whether the key is a cursor key, tab key, etc. this makes mc unusable using ssh.
I read some discussion about the esc esc delay issue and don’t think that this has anything to do with that issue. I played with various params which appear to work as advertised. If I ssh from osx terminal con to the same ubuntu box and try the same con ssh connection, no problem. Also no problem if I ssh from the ubuntu box to a debian box running 3.2.0.4. I know that ubuntu uses dash shell by default and tried switching to bash. This didn’t help. I have also checked environment variables generated by ‘set’ and saw very little difference between local login (before ssh) and ssh login (after ssh login). What am I missing? Thanks. _______________________________________________ mc mailing list https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
