i7z breaks backspace on xterm #65

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
after ending i7z on xterm the backspace doesn't work anymore but prints ^H. 
This cannot be reset by neither "reset" nor "stty sane". Please se downstream 
report https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=447834

hey justin

i am not able to reproduce it on debian with xterm-278. let me see if i can get 
a gentoo bootable and test it. i'll update it on gentoo-bugs once i am done

Perhaps our livedvd is enough. you can install additional packages while 
running it in live mode without touching the harddisk.

Hey Justin

regarding this issue, how do you want it to be resolved? 

should i remove the stty sane line from the code? (i don't know if its 
right/wrong for a program to actually do a saning without notifying the user)

I don't really get the point of the problem. Does i7 do something wrong or 
doesn't xterm reset everything to default correctly? Is this reproducible on 
other distributions? On which are you developing?

xterm for gentoo doesnot reset correctly. i found this issue only for gentoo's 
xterm, i tried debian(stable/testing/unstable) and ubuntu some have the same 
version installed.

If its gentoo specific, it would be nice, if you could give me patch to fix it 
here. Then we can leave the vanilla i7z as is and have it fixed for gentoo.

Hi Abhirana,
  why don't you contact Thomas Dickey directly on the xterm issue? He joined the bug on Gentoo and provided fair amount of analysis (you can get his email there or even better, join the conversation on bugs.gentoo.org). It still happens for me. :(
Thank you,
martin
