[opensuse] 9.0 to 10.2 update problem with virtual terminals
I did an update from 9.0 to 10.2 and all went well. I have an application that runs on a virtual terminal (/dev/tty2). It has a command line prompt in which the last char sent to it is a ^] (0x1d). (Why isn't relevant) This char was never actually displayed. It now displays a char something like <*> for this char. On 9.0 the char was not displayed. A fresh install of 10.2 and the char is not displayed. In a konsole terminal session the char is not displayed. Only in a virtual terminal is it displayed. (tty1 - tty12) Instead of a fresh install I thought someone might know the easy answer to making the char not displayable.

Answering my own post: If I execute "/bin/unicode_start" (from the kbd package) in that virtual terminal first, the problem is gone. Mark -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
