Subject: Problem with "su -" and kernels 2.4.3-ac11 and higher
Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2001 10:22:34 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20010422102234.A1093@ulthar.internal.mclure.org> (raw)
I'm having a problem with "su -" on ac11/ac12. ac5 doesn't show the
problem.
The problem is easy to reproduce - go to a console, log in as root, do an
"su -" (this will succeed) and then another "su -". The second "su -"
should hang - ps shows it started bash and that the bash process is
sleeping. You need to "kill -9" the bash to get your prompt back.
Distribution is Red Hat 7.1, running on an Athlon Thunderbird 900MHz on a
MSI K7T Turbo R motherboard.
Thanks,
