I don't believe it is, because my 6.1 system (using the lfs-bootscripts) doesn't do it. When I compiled the kernel, I turned off Legacy (BSD) PTY support. I'll build another kernel and add that back and see if that makes a difference. I don't think it will -- I have it off here too. But it'd be worth a shot. Did you say you were using some kind of framebuffer console? Does it help at all if you change that, or did you try that already? No. I do use vga=0x0f07 on the kernel line, but that shouldn't affect input. Well, in theory no, but if vesafb (or whatever) uses a different line discipline, it might. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page

BTW, I have fixed the symptom with an addition to /etc/vimrc with: if term == linux set t_kb=^? endif where the ^? is really a delete character created by a ctrl-v BS-key. I would really like to find the problem and fix it however. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
