Public bug reported: 1. Create a Precise container with the Ubuntu template: sudo lxc-create -n precise -t ubuntu -- -r precise 2. Start the container with lxc-start: sudo lxc-start -n precise
The following effects can be observed: a) Independent of the actual size: ubuntu@precise:~$ echo $COLUMNS $LINES 80 24 b) Commands like less behave strange if not 80x24. c) If you type a command that is longer than 80 chars, the cursor jumps to the first column on the same line overwriting the prompt and the command; the ouput of such commands is correct. If you connect to the container with sudo lxc-console -n precise the effects a-c cannot be observed and work as expected. Expected: containers started with lxc-create should behave like containers connected to with lxc-console Workaround: sudo lxc-start -n precise -d sudo lxc-console -n precise ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: lxc 0.7.5-3ubuntu52 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-23.36-generic 3.2.14 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-23-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Apr 24 12:46:26 2012 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Release amd64 (20111012) SourcePackage: lxc UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-03-31 (24 days ago) ** Affects: lxc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987770 Title: lxc-start: wrong terminal size To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/987770/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
