you could do the following CTRL-C CTRL-J reset CTRL-J
this will, eventually break any running/hangin application (need some luck here) send a return (enter) execute the reset command wich will refresh your terminal session in the same way a log-on would do send a return to execute reset It's true you could as well just type reset and press return -----Original Message----- From: Tyler Braun [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 28, 2001 4:55 PM To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: Console Text Scrambled This morning after shutting down X everything on my console was scrambled. I can still type commands and can somewhat distinguish that characters are appearing on the screen, but nothing's readable. I can also start X back up without any problems. Anyone know what might be causing this? And how to fix without a reboot? My system's running 2.4.2 kernel and Debian unstable.
