The 'screen' program freezes at start (shows no output, doesn't react to any keys). When connecting over SSH, I use enter ~ . to drop SSH connection and connect again. According to strace, it runs pause() and there it stays. But, if I move away /etc/screenrc, screen works.
Plus, when I remove: silencewait 15 # default: 30 Running 'screen' just kills the SSH session.
silencewait 30 does the same, so it definitely is not the default as is suggested by the configuration file
Simplest configuration file that freezes screen: silencewait 15 # default: 30 Simplest configuration file that tears down SSH connection: pow_detach_msg "Screen session of \$LOGNAME \$:cr:\$:nl:ended." When I remove both of them, I'm getting something that looks like a split screen but screen only uses the upper half of the reals screen. This can be fixed by also removing: startup_message off However, I don't know how to fix this properly and make it work with the Gentoo default options.
