Keyboard weirdness
All of a sudden today Im having a very weird issue with my keyboards. 1. Pressing the ctrl key nets a single quotation mark 2. Pressing s nets s. (s followed by a period). Pressing period nets that same s. combination 3. Pressing the quotation key does nothing. Thats just what Ive come across so far. You can imagine how much Ive had to edit this mes.s.age with all the periods and letter s Ive typed... Anyone have an idea of why this might be happening? I didnt change anything, and it seems to happen even on the console. -- Using Opera's mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Turns out this is a hardware problem with they keyboard itself, I have the same issue when plugging the keyboard into another system. -- Using Opera's mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
stty/keyboard weirdness with telnet, rlogin, etc...
Using 4.6.2... When I telnet/rlogin/whatever from my freeBSD 4.6.2 system to another UNIX (like UW711, OSR5, etc.) the backspace key suddenly works like the DEL key - namely sending INTR. stty -a shows that the DEL key is for INTR and that the backspace key is still ^H. $TERM=xterm... Seems so odd... Since the stty settings seem fine, it is almost like the keyboard mapping is getting munged when going to an external box. on the local FreeBSD machine the backspace key works as expected. Any ideas?
