Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello List- I have a virgin install of 4.2 running on a AMD Ahtlon 700. VIA Chipset. I did do a kernel recompile to disable a few things (especially the apm since I was getting those clock going backward errors), anyways.... My problem: I have a 4.1.1 system sitting next to it which I am using as my base of operations and copying parts of config files, etc... I ssh into the 4.2 system and start up pico/vi or stay at the command prompt. On the 4.1.1 system I open up a file in pico or vi and select some lines to paste. I then do a SHIFT+INS to paste and the term freezes like a rock (middle mouse for paste has the same effect). I have to start another ssh session and kill the initial ssh session. Killing the editor or shell isn't doing it. Using default xterm on both systems Shell: tcsh on both systems Can't think of what else matters? I did notice when I do one line pastes it works fine. I did see a thread on here that mentioned a brerak point of 34 lines for freezing or not freezing when pasting, but I have never seen this before and have often pasted more then 34 lines. Also, I noticed it will sometimes paste 3 and a half lines, other times just half a line, etc... a buffer problem? NIC's are Intel Etherexpress Pro on the 4.2 and a 3C905c on the 4.1.1 . Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks! Henrik To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
