Hello! |
2 |
|
3 |
I believe that my console does not work as it ought to. |
4 |
There are two main troubles. First, the text does not move as it gets |
5 |
written. In order to read the result of a command that produces a |
6 |
substantial amount of text in response (such as reboot or ls /etc), I |
7 |
have to switch to another console and back (for instance alt-F2 then |
8 |
alt-F1). Secondly, the cursor is not visible, and, in an editor (such as |
9 |
nano), I have constantly to hunt for it and move it through keystrokes, |
10 |
which is very inconvenient. |
11 |
|
12 |
gpm is installed and works, using the button emulation (this is an |
13 |
iMac), but only to a certain extent: I mean that it does copy-and-paste, |
14 |
but not cut-and-paste. It cannot set the cursor. |
15 |
|
16 |
Is there some sort of configuring to do? or what else? |
17 |

Thanks for hints. |
