Bug 247274 – x11-terms/eterm - no keyboard input

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description glenn burns 2008-11-17 21:38:08 UTC]

eterm input issue.  unable to type commands (no response from keyboard  input).  cut and paste works.

noticed this problem when i upgraded to 0.9.5 way back in june/july.  i went back to a previous version, the problem persists.

[Comment 1 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2008-11-20 16:04:13 UTC]

Please post your `emerge --info'.

[Comment 2 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2008-11-21 02:56:21 UTC]

Could you look at bug #247254 as well, please? Seems mighty similar to this one, with two different terminal emulators.

[Comment 3 Federico Moro 2009-04-30 02:55:36 UTC]

Same problem here. I've just reinstall it today and now I can't use it for the same reason as Glenn.

I'm using es_ES@euro

and here is my emerge --info

Any other info needed?

[Comment 9 glenn burns 2009-12-14 22:36:22 UTC]

did an emerge -eav world after upgrading gcc.  eterm works now.

i suppose an emerge -eav eterm would fix too.
