Hello all, |
| 2 |
|

I recently upgraded the kernel on my laptop to 2.6.14-r5, as well as Xorg, and |
| 4 |
many other packages. Since this change I cannot run an xterm anymore. I seem |
| 5 |
to recall this happening to me years ago, but I do not remember the cause. |
| 6 |
|

When I start X, all is well, and everything runs as it should, except for term |
| 8 |
programs. Eterm hangs there, but instead of a prompt, I get "press <esc> to |
| 9 |
exit". konsole and {a,x}term don't even show up, although I suspect they are |
| 10 |
just starting then stopping immediately. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
I do have psuedo terminals in my kernel, and in fact the config is exactly as |
| 13 |
it was with the old kernel. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Any ideas how to troubleshoot this? If you want to see my config file or |
| 16 |
something else just ask. |

Thanks, |
