I can confirm this on Feisty with Screen version 4.00.03 (FAU) 23-Oct-06, GNU bash version 3.2.13(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu), and GNOME gnome-terminal 2.18.0.
In screen with gnome-term: 1) with emacs: ASCII delete, ctrl+h, and esc sequence don't work. 2) with irssi: only ctrl+h works. 3) with bash shell: only ctrl+h works. Same symptoms in xterm + screen with emacs and irssi. Whey I say "doesn't work," I mean no backspace is produced and a "Wuff ---- Wuff!!" is displayed by screen. This however *WAS NOT* a symptom on my mac book laptop. Only my desktop. Both with Feisty. -- Backspace key in GNU Screen not detected correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/29787 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
