All of a sudden, the console and all xterms on the box of a friend of mine are doing something very strange. If she tries say: export | grep TERM, it returns a blank line, and then _2_ prompts. If she presses the enter key, she gets back 2 prompts. This indicates to me that Linux is somehow thinking that her enter key is actually 2 enter keys. Also, at the login prompt, if she types the user name, two blank lines appear, then the password prompt. Consoles 1 through 6 exhibit this. I've had her reload the keyboard maps, verify bash, SysVinit and console-tools, and rpm says they're all good (apart from a missing S75 link which we rebuilt). I'm stumped now.. it lasts across reboots and powercycles. Anybody ever seen this and know a fix? -- Duncan Hill Sapere aude One net to rule them all, One net to find them, One net to bring them all, and using Unix bind them. -- To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
