Doh! I set this myself the other day, for some reason or other. Nice
to know that it's nothing to do with hardware at all :-).

Thanks,

Aha, your /bin/sh is probably not bash, but ash. Older versions of ash
do not reckognize the (posix) signal names (as opposed to numbers). This
should have been fixed AFAIK. Try to update whatever your /bin/sh is
to the latest version ..

Strangeness at boot

1998-02-23 Thread Dominic Davidson
Recently, I have started getting messages like this at boot and
shutdown:

trap: illegal number SIGHUP
trap: illegal number SIGINT

Has anyone any idea what may be causing them? I am worried that it may
be related to a bad case of overheating I had the other day when my
CPU fan started to die (and that is _not_ a good thing on a Cyrix
6x86...).

Cheers,
-Dom
