Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 17:47:48 -0800 (PST) From: Jim Trocki <trockij> To: davem Subject: serial console strangeness on sparclinux I'm using the first serial port on an Ultra1 for the console, running sparclinux 2.2.14pre12, and certain keys are ignored, such as ^C and ^Z. Here is some info: [root@diy /root]# uname -a Linux diy.transmeta.com 2.2.14pre12 #3 Fri Dec 10 07:38:40 PST 1999 sparc64 unknown [root@diy /root]# tty /dev/console [root@diy /root]# ls -l /dev/console crw------- 1 root tty 5, 1 Dec 13 17:39 /dev/console [root@diy /root]# stty sane [root@diy /root]# stty -a speed 9600 baud; rows 0; columns 0; line = 0; intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>; eol2 = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; dsusp = ^Y; rprnt = ^R; werase = ^W; lnext = ^V; flush = ^O; -parenb -parodd cs8 hupcl -cstopb cread clocal -crtscts -ignbrk brkint ignpar -parmrk -inpck -istrip -inlcr -igncr icrnl ixon -ixoff -iuclc -ixany imaxbel opost -olcuc -ocrnl onlcr -onocr -onlret -ofill -ofdel nl0 cr0 tab0 bs0 vt0 ff0 isig icanon iexten echo echoe echok -echonl -noflsh -xcase -tostop -echoprt echoctl echoke Any ideas? ^S and ^Q work, so does ^D, but ^Z and ^C do nothing. If I telnet to the machine, then all the above keys function as expected--it's only over the serial console am I having problems. I'm using the stock RH6.1 distribution. I get the same behavior using the 2.2.12-42 which comes with RHAT. Here is some more info from /etc/inittab co:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty console DT9600 vt100 [root@diy /root]# grep DT9600 /etc/gettydefs DT9600# B9600 CS8 CLOCAL # B9600 SANE -ISTRIP CLOCAL #@S login: #DT9600 Jim Trocki <trockij> Computer System and Network Engineer Transmeta Corporation Santa Clara, CA
