Title: ssh keyboard screwed up
Post by: benkvi on Wednesday 07 April 2010, 05:44:01 am
Hi.

When I ssh to the firewall and try to edit .conf files with vi, my backspace strokes enter a ^? and arrow-keys different other characters. It's excruciating !  :P

How can I fix this..?

Thanx beforehand..:)

Hm, not one I've come across before to be honest.

You could try "showkeys" from the command line to see what it's expecting :)

Hmm, I did this:

# showkey
kb mode was UNICODE
[ if you are trying this under X, it might not work
since the X server is also reading /dev/console ]

press any key (program terminates 10s after last keypress)...
^?^?^?^[[A^[[A^[[A

(entered 3 backspaces and ups)

Im not sure what that tells me...
