Subject: bug in `tty: BKL pushdown'?
Date: Sun, 18 May 2008 04:16:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87wslsuzk8.fsf@saeurebad.de> (raw)
Hello!
git-bisect thinks that 04f378b198da233ca0aca341b113dc6579d46123 broke my
screen setup on the console in the following way:
I run ncurses applications like less and emacs in a screen session.
Since the above mentioned commit, a detach from screen followed by a
reattach (screen -r or by unlocking the screen session after lock),
these programs behave weird. Emacs does display mode-line updates in
the next line each time which makes the screen scroll off. This
behaviour is with vga=normal.
On vga=791, the breakage _toggles_ between detach-reattach cycles.
I.e. emacs breaks after the first detach-reattach and works properly
again after the second one.
I have yet to test a current kernel version with this patch reverted
because I am too sleepy right now to solve the conflicts.
If you need further information to debug this, please let me know.
Hannes
