 Posted: Thu Oct 28, 2010 5:48 pm Post subject: nano arrow key issues |
 |
|
So I've noticed since updating my system yesterday that nano now generates the letters A, B, C, and D when the Up, Down, Right and Left (respectively) arrow keys are pressed. An '[ Unknown Command ]' notice is generated at the bottom menu line as well.
Also their output seems to be somewhat random...it only seems to happen when the key(s) are held down for a little bit (1-2sec), and then the rate at which the characters are output varies widely.
This system does not have X running, and my usage is strictly over SSH using putty on a windows system.
It only seems to occur for my user account (not a problem for root), and this anomaly does NOT happen in the regular terminal (as the user or root). My user account does NOT have a nanorc file in the home directory either.
Needless to say, this is kind of annoying having those letters 'scatterously' pooped out in any documents I'm editing.

Hmmm....
Well, it *sounds* like somehow either your keyboard mapping and/or your terminal settings got messed up somewhere.
As an initial note, something that caught my eye on your 'emerge --info' was the following:
| Code: | | INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" |
You said that you aren't running an X server on this box, so:
- Is x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev really necessary on your box?
- If it *is* necessary, then is "keyboard mouse" necessary? IIRC, it was part of the last major upgrade with HAL and dbus to remove those from the INPUT_DEVICES line.
HTH. Let us know.

Ok, that's interesting.
I never explicitly defined those input devices anywhere (greped all of /etc). They are defined in the profile make.defaults file though (I don't think that I changed it, but I could be wrong).
On the flip side, though this box doesn't use X, systems that network boot off of it do (they use this boxes' FS as a shared filesystem so only one system update affects everyone).
A run at emerging nano with an empty tree doesn't pull in anything that uses the INPUT_DEVICES variable, or at least that prints this fact out...
