`kmscon -l /bin/login` backspace broken #32

Closed etam closed 11 years ago

etam commented 11 years ago

when I run kmscon -l /bin/login and press backspace while typing in login prompt ^H appears. eta^Ham is not the same as etam. This also applies to typing password (like whole password, nothing appears this time, but you cannot correct yourself). In bash backspace behaves as expected.

Thanks a lot for reporting this! After an hour of reading /bin/login and /bin/stty sources, I noticed that this was caused by a wrong VERASE setting... I fixed it in abde919bbd83548e7a2d4d88985c8959115be4d2. It works for me now.

Thanks! David
