-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Here is a better solution: I am assuming that you are in the US, as I am.... I had the same issue and apparently this is a i18n (Internationalization) problem. Some of the guys on the #redhat irc channel helped me out on this one. Go to /etc/sysconfig/i18n and change the LANG variable to just "en_US", and reboot. This fixed the issue for me.
Hope this helps! scp >Hi, > I managed to fix my problem by issueing a 'reset' command which >supposedly resets the command strings and sets the terminal into >cooked >mode.
