Guys, I have a strange problem. ctrl+c is completely broken on my system. It won't cancel Jack Schit. It is the strangest thing I've seen. I apologize if there is some archain Arch notice on this I apologize, I've missed it. This is easy to test. Just to 'ping anywhere' and then try and kill it with ctrl+c. I have to open another terminal and either 'killall ping' or kill the pid to get the thing to stop. Same thing happens if I mistype a cli and need to cancel the execution (like if I mistype a ' instead of a " and the script continues on a new line) What's up with this?
OK I've narrowed it down to gnome-terminal. If I use konsole (kde3 or kde4) ctrl+c works just fine.
Can anyone else try in gnome-terminal and see if ctrl+c is broken for you? Just type 'ping whatever' and then try to kill ping with crtl+c. I can't and that's a problem.
I'm using using gnome-terminal 2.30.2-1 -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. Rankin Law Firm, PLLC 510 Ochiltree Street Nacogdoches, Texas 75961 Telephone: (936) 715-9333 Facsimile: (936) 715-9339 www.rankinlawfirm.com
