Dear List, I have SuSE 9.0 installed. On doing apt 'update', from the console, when the process starts, I get some 'protest beep' sounds, and the screen characters are jumbled and corrupted for a few lines. Then it settles down, and 'update' proceeds OK with legible screen characters. Another symptom that all is not quite right : a Reverse Search, Ctrl 'R', looking for a recent console command, does not work properly. ~ thinking that it may be a "bash" problem, I have re-installed 'bash' but these strange behaviours continue. On this same PC, I have SuSE 8.0 on another Partition ~ I am not having these problems with SuSE 8.0 Any ideas, please, what could be the problems in SuSE 9.0 ? thanks. ____________ sent on Linux ____________

C-r is bound to reverse-search-history and works OK in 9.0. The problem may be in your personal settings. I suggest that you create a new user and test it again. -- A.M.

I have been informed that this problem is caused by the compiler that ships with SuSE 9.0
