I've done more tests. The problem always occurs (not only in xterm), except when I do a "reset" from bash. To reproduce it, press 'a' and wait for the a's to reach the right of the terminal. I have the prompt: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ Then I press 'a' and wait: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa bash: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa: command not found [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ See? Then I type 'reset' and retry, try again after starting a bash subshell, and another time after exiting this subshell: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa bash: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa: command not found [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ bash [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa bash: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa: command not found [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ exit [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa bash: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa: command not found [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ Same problem after removing by .bash_profile and .bashrc files. But this problem doesn't occur when executing "bash --norc". -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
