Subject: [9fans] Update on cat v cp & /dev/screen
Date: Mon,  6 Oct 2003 08:23:28 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.33.0310060815470.3289-100000@einstein.ssz.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.33.0310051058330.3289-100000@einstein.ssz.com>


I have recreated the problem by allowing a drawterm connection to stay
open for just over half a day (I can't say exactly because I didn't note
the start time of last reboot yesterday). Also, it appears that if you do
the command from drawterm before you do it from a local cli the local cli
will then fail on subsequent commands.

I am using a basic image from June 18 that was last pulled about 3 weeks
ago. The system went through a complete rebuild at that time.

I see several potential paths of cause:

- hardware
- bad os build somehow unique to this combination
- an actual bug in P9
- something about the combo of drawterm and SuSE 8.0

Once I've completed the curent phase of work I'm in I will be able to
reload the box in toto and re-test.

It will be interesting to see if the middle mouse button will work in
drawterm on a reload as well with respect to this SuSE 8.0 load.

In addition the plan is to update this machine to SuSE 8.2 in the next
week or so.
