[solved] resizing PuTTY window while running nano is messed up

If I'm using PuTTY (Windows SSH client / terminal emulator) and nano running on Arch Linux, window resizing is completely broken. On Debian it is fine however. I went to see if they used any patches, but they don't, none related to terminal resizing so there must be some other cause.
When you resize while running nano it can look like this in Arch:
And in Debian:
Both have checkwinsize in bash enabled, but other than that I have really no idea how to fix it... It's VERY annoying! As it also leaves bash kinda confused after closing nano, until you resize it again.

I fixed it. Commenting out "export COLUMNS LINES" in /etc/profile did the trick.

  • [SOLVED] Resizing konsole window freezes computer

    Hello,
    I have a bit of a strange problem.  I am using KDE and whenever I resize the konsole window my computer freezes.  I am unable to even switch to different terminal screens at this point using Ctrl-Alt-F1 etc.  It doesn't always freeze completely; sometimes my screen gets pixels all over it the more I move any windows similar to a TV with no cable hooked up.  I think this started happening since my latest pacman upgrade but I can't be sure.  This happens only when desktop effects are enabled.  When desktop effects are disabled I get a black box drawn over  the top left corner of the screen that corresponds to the resizing of the konsole window.
    So far I have tried reinstalling konsole and the nvidia proprietary drivers.  This *only* happens when resizing the konsole window.
    I also noticed a that yaourt stopped working around the same time.  I get this error: "package-query: error while loading shared libraries: libyajl.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" when I try to search for anything.  Maybe it's related.
    I hope this makes sense.  It's definitely a strange one.  If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be grateful.

  • Closing Console window while running Java application from Batch file

    Hi all,
    I have made a small application using Java swings,now i have made a jar file of my application and calling this jar file through batch file,when user clicks on that batch file it runs "java -jar applicationname.jar" command,but problem is that when i run that file from batch file it opens Dos console window at baclk of the screen which looks weird for a desktop application,i dnt want that Dos console window visible at the backend while my application is running,i have searched regarding this on google but found nothing usefull,if anybody can please help regarding that it will be a great releif for me,i have been stuck on this problem from last two days.
    Thanks.

And that batch file won't return until the java process has completed because he didn't start it in the background to let the batch file continue and terminate.
    So I don't think just simply substituting java with javaw will do much good either. Still think he needs a "start" command in that batch file.
    So now he can try:
    start java -jar ...
    or
    start javaw -jar ...Fair point

  • Avoiding popup window while running in back ground

    Hi all,
    I have done one program for updating the basic salary using BDC. salaries are updating correctly for some people. but for people it is not updating. The reason for this is it is throwing one information with popup window saying "Entered Salary is greater than Salary Band Maximum". i want to avoid this popup window and update the salary. I dont want to change any data in any table like T510n. but the salary must be updated. how to overcome this situation.
    Thanks and regards,
    Giri.

    Hi,
    In your BDC you can check for the condition when
    SALARY > Max Band Salary.
    In such a case, add BDC_OKCODE command with ENTER in the BDC.
    I had faced similar problems in BDC before.
    Hope this helps,

  • Resizing terminal window (solution provided)

    Hello
    I have an irritating problem using the terminal under xfce4
    Resizing the terminal (xterm) and (terminal) running nano results in a blank terminal. All the text disapears.
    Resizing the terminal running top results in the window gets bigger but the text doesn't update all the way down. allthough there are more processes running.
    If I resize the window before running the programs all is well.
    Do I have to provide more information??
    Can someone please advice me how to correct the problem.

  • Resize video window hangs

    I'm running iTunes 7.6 (29) on Mac OS 10.5.1. When I resize video windows while playing in iTunes I get hangs that require me to hard power down my MacBook Pro (2.6GHz, 4GB RAM). Is anyone else seeing this? Is there a fix, or is this related to the general unstableness of OS 10.5? I also have the syslogd and mdworker (do a Google search for each) problems that Apple refuses to acknowledge or fix.

    No, rolling back to QuickTime 7.3.1 didn't fix the problem. I suspect it was the graphics drivers.
    I installed 10.5.2 and the Leopard graphics driver update tonight. One of them seems to have fixed the iTunes window resize problem (although I just played around for a while to try it). I didn't try to recreate the problem between upgrades so I can't say which update might have fixed it. If the problem returns I'll post back here.
    I still have trouble with runaway syslogd processes... but that wasn't the topic of this thread. I've had one of those since I installed the upgrades, but I'm getting good at going into Terminal to kill and fix the process. After all, isn't using the command line interface of Terminal oh so Mac like?

  • While running an update in Itunes i received an error message - Unable to locate component because AVFoundationCF.dll was not found. Then Itunes was not installed correctly. Error 7 (windows error 126) Do I have to reinstall and will I loose all my music?

    While running an update in itunes (not installing), it stopped in the middle of the update and i receceived the following messages:
    Application failed to start because AVFoundationCF.dll was not found. Reinstalling itunes may fix the problem. Then "itunes was installed incorrectly. Please reinstall itunes Error 7 (Windows error 126)".  If i uninstall and reinstall itunes will I lose all of my music, etc.?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

Then they ordered hp recovery discs. When i received it while running the 1st cd an error came with label REDUCER-copy file failed from D... to C.... They then sent a technician who said that the recovery cd are faulty. Its Been a month and the problem still persists. They have ordered a new set of recovery cd.

  • I got a MAJOR virus while running on Windows...what to do now?

    I made the mistake of downloading a torrent while running on Windows, and I ended up getting the blue screen of death. I don't need to use Windows anymore anyways, but I'm worried it's going to effect my MacOS. By completely removing and uninstalling Windows, will that take care of the problem?

    There are attacks against Cisco routers, but he didn't say his router was his concern.
    There is malware that attacks memory, master boot record, page file, tries to disable antivirus, poisons the DNS, etc. Lots of nasties. Windows Vista and 7 are more secure than XP ever will be.
    There is / was malware embedded in a pirated Windows 7 build.
    If you want help with using removal tools, or what to use the next time, I have links or just search newsgroups and forums.
    Most torrent clients open you up, broadcast your IP, and you will see denial of service attacks and others that "come calling" so I would add some rules to your router to block any incoming or outgoing on the ports used by torrents; I would log or insure that it really is preventing DDoS also. And block Windows Sharing at the router level. I much prefer a hardened router in addition and more important than software firewall (but always use both, but even if the software got disabled, you would still be protected).

    I would also like to be able to check if HT is working under Mac OS.
    Another way to do that is to turn on Verbose Mode and watch the processor IDs that are enabled. And/or open the kernel.log in Console and find the beginning of today's boot. You should see a list of "AppleACPICPU: ProcessorId=# LocalApicId=# Enabled" counting up to the number of processors your Mac could have. For example, I've got one CPU but the Mac could hold two. Each CPU has six processors and each processor has two threads, so the kernel.log shows ProcessorId 0 to 11 having LocalApicId's enabled and 12 to 23 having LocalApicId's disabled (because the second CPU isn't installed).
