------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-16 23:33 ------- Another "Me to" but I did look a bit closer at the problem. I have locale en_US.UTF-8 and /etc/init.d/mandrake_consmap is installed and I guess triggers the problem. When shutting down /etc/rc.d/rc calls /etc/init.d/mandrake_consmap and in there it executes 'vt-is-UTF8 --quiet || unicode_start'. vt-is-UTF8 sends a unicode sequence that includes ";2R" to the screen and expect some characters back to check if it's unicode enabled. It suppose to remove it also but when 'init' runs the command something fails and it behaves like you have typed it directly. When you type a few characters on the keyboard (backspace, return, whatever) vt-is-UTF8 receives that and tries to understand it, fails with an io error and the script continues. if you start with hitting <enter> you get a shell error ';2R' not found because the shell tries to interpret it. >From what I see the problem is with 'init', 'vt-is-UTF8' and the io handling between them. As a workaround, when shutting down I just hit a few keys and ignore whatever error I get. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: RESOLVED creation_date: description: Configuration: - AMD Duron 1.2, 512Mb, Shuttle XPC SN41G2 Nforce2, Maxtor 120Gb - Fresh MDK 9.1 RC2 installation, no NVIDIA drivers installed Problem 1: SysVinit % shutdown -r now ;2R - bash: syntax error near unexpected token ';' % shutdown -r now is_in_UTF8_mode: Input/Output error - in installation I checked "Force UTF8 mode" or what was it...
