If this doesn't work, try to explain here how you think it is "locked", how this locking manifests itself, whatever. Perhaps then someone might come up with an idea.

I have no idea about 2, but you aren't by chance typing Control-s, are you? That locks the screen; typing Control-q frees it back up again.

unlock a locked up tty session
This has happened several times recently. I have changed from one tty session to another, come back to the first, and the session is locked up. If I was in an application, it just sits there, if I was at the command line, I cannot type. I can change back to other tty sessions and continue to do work. I generally keep this up until I am down to my last session, then reboot, which clear up the problem, for awhile. I have 2 questions: 1. How do I log off of the locked-up session without restarting? 2. Where would I look to see what is causing the problem to begin with? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
