Just because it's a config issue, does not mean it's not a bug. The bug (as explained in the original description) is that changing it away from autodetect is required.
Tracked down the source of the problem: vte will send whatever the terminal's erase character is, even when it's undefined (that is, '\0'); screen unsets erase and other keys. Vte ought to fall back on a reasonable value, rather than issue the obviously-wrong [EMAIL PROTECTED] ^? seems like a good candidate... Screen should probably leave the value alone as well. Will investigate why this is done, in the Savannah bug whose link was posted earlier. -- Backspace key in GNU Screen not detected correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/29787 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
