When I get out of X for any reason on my Sun 4, it screws up the keyboard so badly that I have to reboot the machine to get it back. Does anyone know why this is, and how to fix it? I'd really like to know, since my current solution is to just not run X on the Sun 4. _MelloN_

Does your sun server stick the terminal into non-blocking I/O mode? There used to be a problem where it wouldn't set it back and your shell would, of course, get failed reads (no data) which were interpreted as EOF's. I thought that this had been fixed awhile back, but you may not have applied that patch. I'd check. Jordan
