What happens?


Everything runs fine, such as playing a movie with mplayer, running df_dok, etc. At the exit the screen doesn't recover. The system is fine can still ssh to it.

Tried everything, then created an new partition and rebuild the system, this time using glib 2.3.5, and now I've no problems just a lot of work to rebuild all the software. The only significant changes were the later version on glibc and dropping devfs.


That sounds exactly like what I'm seeing: things seem to work fine
(apart from ignoring my keyboard) and then never return to the shell.

I _think_ this is glibc 2.3.5 that I'm using on that machine (can't
check right now but it is a fairly recent Debian package (probably the
same version as is on the Epia box where it works!).

However, I've rebooted in the problem system and moved all the start-up scripts out of the way and copied the start-up scripts from the working system. The old scripts used to load devfs and udev stuff. The new scripts are just using udev. The new scripts are just a bare system starting only essential services.

Now I've no problems running dfbinfo and mplayer they both exit cleanly and the keyboard is working.

All I've really proved is that glibc is not the problem.

Duncan.
