Description Joerg Dorchain 2001-05-28 09:19:11 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.4 i686; Nav)

Description of problem:
The stty command in /etc/bashrc hangs (strace says loops with -ERESTARTSYS)
when doing an su - <user> as root from a vt or a network login (xterm and
gnome-termnial work oddly, as well as stracing with strace -f su - <user>)
as root.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login as root on a console virtual terminal
2. su - <some other user>
3. There you are
	

Actual Results:  nothing directly visible. The process list shows a stty in
T state. Tracing this back leads to the stty in /etc/bashrc.

Expected Results:  Get a login like enviroment for the other user.


Additional info:

Both su and stty are from sh-utils-2.0-13
Kernel is 2.4.4 from kernel.org
glibc is 2.2.2-10
