Okay, going to make some educated guesses here, based on where I have
seen this before. 1) As a regular user, you use tcsh and bash as root
2) you have not examined /etc/profile.d/inputrc.csh to see the little
error that snuck its way in:
setenv LESS=-MM
The behavior you are describing is corrected by removing the equal sign.
Newer releases of the initscripts rpm have corrected this.
