I am new to debian and linux. I installed Debian last week. Now, I have a problem. If I press Ctrl - s in a terminal or in Emacs, the s key will not reponse anymore no matter how I press it. That's annoying. I have to reboot the machine to get the s key to work again. But, I do need Ctrl - s, especially when using Emacs to edit something. Anyone know how to resolve this problem.
Welcome to the 1980's. You've sent an XOFF command to your terminal. Ctrl-S and Ctrl-Q are interpreted as XON and XOFF -- serial line software flow-control.
Normal behavior. Hit Ctrl-Q to continue. :-) -- Nate Duehr, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
