https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=439926 Summary: /bin/su closes stderr Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Beta 3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jw@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- open konsole, type su, no password prompt appears. If I type the root password correctly, I have a working root shell with no prompts. strace reveals that the prompts go to stderr, but stderr is closed. All writes get EINVAL. workaround: su -c 'bash 2>&1' The password prompt is still missing then, but the shell behaves as expected. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
