I had to remove a few ancient lines in my .profile (I am a user of the old ksh) for changing a couple of keys using a xmodmap. To wit:
# xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = BackSpace" # xmodmap -e "keycode 107 = Delete" # xmodmap ~/.xmodmap As you can see I commented out those lines and I regained the funcitonality I wanted. Those keycodes were for an external keyboard that died recently, and so keymaps of the internal KB of the DELL laptop were probably getting clobbered in an unexpected way. The xmodmap codes have been obviated by the settings of the gnome-terminal's Edit -> Profile settings. Thanx to all who tried to help.
