I've run into an annoying problem periodically, and I'm wondering if this is the same one... when this happens to you: 1. Does CTRL-C work? Mine doesn't. 2. When I do a "su -", I get "bash: no job control in this shell" I can happen both in text mode and in X-Windows. If I log out on the console, and then log in again, the problem usually goes away. I see this problem with console logins as well and it does seem to only occur after applying the updates. Could this be in the util-linux update? Haven't seen it on all my machines, in particular the two laptops have yet to show it. Probably coincidental. I do hack /etc/pam.d/system-auth, but only the auth section. Just to crosslink all these symptoms, many people have experienced the same or similar bugs with the Seawolf updates (util-linux-2.11f-11.7.1), e.g. bug #54865 and bug #54741. So far, I haven't got anything like that with Enigma and thought it was specific to Seawolf. Interesting, that it is not. This isn't just a vty problem. I'm also seeing this on serial console with Redhat 7.2. It is especially annoying because ssh complains: "You have no controlling tty. Cannot read passphrase." The output of strace reveals this error: open("/dev/tty", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENXIO (No such device or address) cat /dev/tty complains likewise. Another one: bug #55741 |
