Try typing "reset" without the quotes to see if that helps.



Thank you for this answer. This does resolve the issue I was experiencing.
  
Nice.  I've encountered the same issue a few times.  More than likely 
it's from my head banging against the keyboard and it happens to hit the 
right combination of keys to hork my shell.


17 minutes into a new day and I've already learned something.  Guess I 
can sleep the rest of the day. :)

I use rtorrent for cli and it works great. ctorrent hasn't been maintained for 
years it seems and is slow and buggy. rtorrent has been rock solid for
me. Don't forget to use moblock/mobloquer.



I am trying out various command line torrent apps and rtorrent is on
my list (also tried transmssioncli). I have not heard of
moblock/mobloquer. A quick search of gentoo's portage tree doesn't
reveal them. I'm guessing they are programs designed to protect
identity or hide torrent traffic from ISP's?

Re: Best Vista Error EVAR, gaming, and software requests, and an Ubuntu gripe

FreeBSD, and I would have to assume OpenBSD have root login via ssh 
disabled by default.  It doesn't make much sense why linux distros don't 
change this, but it doesn't make sense why MySQL is shipped without a 
root password either.  I guess someone thinks it's a good idea, or 
doesn't think it's a bad enough idea to fix a common sense security flaw.

 If you do this however...I highly recommend editing the 
 /etc/ssh/sshd_config
 file to not allow root logon.
