RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Steve Grubb 2010-05-10 16:40:01 UTC 
Description of problem:
When RHEL6 beta is installed using the minimal install option, the keyboard arrows/tab do not display correctly. For example, if I type "chk" and then hit tab, the cursor jumps to the right about 8 spaces and I do not see any tab completion.

Hitting up arrow should show me the history, but all I see is ^[[A  the down arrow gives me ^[[B.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bash-4.1.2-2.el6

inclusion.
Comment 3 Ray Strode [halfline] 2010-05-10 18:23:33 UTC 
This is fallout from a problem in the patch in bug 582265
Comment 4 Ray Strode [halfline] 2010-05-10 18:26:44 UTC 
Note this bug also causes usernames to show up hidden and passwords to show up visible on tty1 when logging in.
Comment 5 Ray Strode [halfline] 2010-05-10 18:36:30 UTC 
This was actually fixed in plymouth-0.8.3-1.el6.  After installing it, make sure to rebuild your initrd by installing a kernel or running /usr/libexec/plymouth/plymouth-update-initrd
Comment 6 Steve Grubb 2010-05-10 20:11:58 UTC 
Installing 0.8.3 is confirmed as fixing both login password being displayed as well as the tab completion.
Comment 8 Ray Strode [halfline] 2010-05-14 14:01:52 UTC 
Something is funny here.  I'm going to need to do another build.
Comment 9 Ray Strode [halfline] 2010-05-14 14:31:19 UTC 
Should be fixed in plymouth-0.8.3-2.el6

I think what happened was:

1) At some point I added the patch to the source tree and did a local build and verified it.
2) I then got distracted by some other issue and forgot about it
3) Then this bug came along I went to my cvs checkout and saw the patch was already applied, wrote comment 5 and moved to MODIFIED, not realizing it wasn't built in brew yet.

What I don't understand is how plymouth-0.8.3-1.el6 fixes the problem for those hit by it.

Anyway, we definitely need the patch, so I've built -2 now.

Sorry for the confusion and mistakes.

Comment 12 Radek Lat 2010-08-24 11:59:42 UTC 
Tested and Verified after clean minimal install on plymouth-0.8.3-17.el6.x86_64, moving to VERIFIED.
