[opensuse] runlevel 1 question
How come mc (Midnight Commander) looks messed up in runlevel 1 but is OK if you go to runlevel 3? Is there an easy way to make it readable in runlevel 1 instead of taking the time to do "init 3"? -- "After the vintage season came the aftermath - and Cenbe."

I can't answer that, but I do know the problem is the same on Kubuntu, Fedora, Knoppix, Debian & Mandriva. -- "The basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teachings we get from Exodus and St. Matthew, from Isaiah and St. Paul.

I suppose it is realted to UTF8. After entering runlevel S/1, try rckbd restart then mc. Let's hope the kernel will have utf8 enabled by default soon.. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

It doesn't work. I'm just from runlevel 1. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I usually switch to Alt-F1 terminal console when I use mc and I've noticed mc not being laid out correctly with different distros over the last year or two. Switching to terminal 2 or 3 (Alt-F2) and running mc from there was OK. I'm running SuSe 10.3 GM with all updates applied 32bit 2.5 athlon, 512 mem, 32 meg legacy ATI graphics and mc is running OK but wasn't prior to my updateing from 10.2 Peter C -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hi Peter, it is issue in runlevel 1 (single user). There is screen redering messed. The mc can be used, but instead of frame lines I see letters. To get in runlevel 1 you can switch to terminal as usually login as root and issue: init 1 it will ask you to give root password again and after that you can start mc. That is the place where mc has a problem. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
