Re: [Cooker] i cannot type a r

2000-12-06 Thread Robert L Martin

It is a known bug in the Linux Kernel. All the "r" are interpreted as
"synchronize disks" (mess up with the SysRq).

Next build of the kernel will fix that issue.

by the way how would you enable said magic key?
(i have a "pre-release" copy of l-m 7.2 and i run a stock kernel.org
2.4.0test 10)

You should have a /etc/sysctl.conf file. Add the line: 

kernel.sysrq = 1

The file is read when network starts.

(and in the meantime, be very careful, top left letter (~ `) is
