Package: ksh Version: 93s+20080202-1 Severity: important User: [email protected] Usertags: kfreebsd
When you suspend a process with Ctrl-Z in ksh on kfreebsd, fg doesn't get it back. ksh seems to believe there's no more job running, but the processes are still running. An example with zile. (Happens with a simple "cat", too, except cat doesn't switch to fullscreen mode, that's why I use zile as example.) The problem should be reproducable with any other text-mode application which has working suspend on Linux or FreeBSD, too. $ zile ^Z $ fg Stopped process continued and you have suddenly a ksh prompt in the middle of the terminal which already switched back to fullscreen text-mode for zile. You can't get zile back with "fg" again. ksh believes there is no more job running: $ jobs $ fg ksh: fg: no such job $ But it is: $ ps auxwww | fgrep zile Unknown HZ value!

T Mar23 0:00 zile $ Since that problem only exists with bash and ksh, but not with zsh, mksh, csh or pdksh, it doesn't seem to be a general kfreebsd neither an application (e.g. zile, cat, etc.) problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (110, 'experimental') Architecture: kfreebsd-i386 (i686) Kernel: kFreeBSD 7.1-1-686-smp Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages ksh depends on: ii libc0.1 2.9-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ksh recommends no packages. ksh suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
