I've opened up a ticket in bugzilla (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=813607) but was curious to see if anyone on the list has seen something similar.
I use screen quite a bit to allow for the ability for a tab-like ability in xterm, my terminal of choice. I've changed it such that when xterm launches, it actually launches as 'xterm -e screen'. I had no problems with it in F16.
However, I now have 2 machines running F17 beta - my laptop that was a clean install of F17 alpha x86_64 and my home desktop, which I upgraded the other day to F17 beta i386 from F16 using preupgrade.
On both machines, whenever I try to run screen as me (I'm the only non-root user on the boxes), an error flashes too quickly to tell what it is and then the message [screen is terminating] shows in the xterm. It also does the same thing if I try it in gnome-terminal (on my laptop at least, haven't tried it on the home machine). If I try it as root in either xterm or gnome-terminal, screen works without a problem.
While I'm a tcsh user, I can also reproduce it using bash.
I don't have a ~/.screenrc file on either machine.
It happened from the beginning on my laptop with F17 alpha, has happened with screen-4.1.0-0.7.20110819git450e8f and happens now with the latest version, screen-4.1.0-0.9.20120314git3c2946.
Any help or thoughts will be greatly appreciated as I want to move my work desktop to F17 as quickly as possible, but can't do it without this important piece.
Thanks!
Brian
