Description of problem: The problem occurs when connecting via Hummingbird Exceed v.10 to a Linux machine with Kernel 2.6.9-42.ELsmp that has xterm-192-4.EL4. Once an XTerm window is opened, the Backspace key mapping breaks. It cannot be set via the following stty either: stty erase ^H stty erase '^?' Note that the problem does not exist when connecting to a Linux machine with Kernel 2.6.9-34.X that has xterm-192-1 using the same connection method and user login. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xterm-192-4.EL4 How reproducible: Using Hummingbird Exceed v.10 via "Secure Shell" method and "xterm" command. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Using Exceed's Secure Shell method, connect to a Linux machine with Kernel 2.6.9-42.ELsmp and has xterm-192-4.EL4. 2. Backspace key no longer works, nor can it be set via stty erase. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: The problem does not exist when connecting to a Linux machine with Kernel 2.6.9-34.X that has xterm-192-1 using the same connection method and user login.
The problem is probably caused by backarrowKey resource, which was changed in the last update. To fix it, delete line "*VT100*backarrowKey: false" in file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 212998 ***
