Re: [wlug] debian console issue.

OK, I am kinda stumped.

I admin a server for someone, it runs debian sarge.

The guy is telling me that from within mc, he can use caps and not use caps fine, but when he drops to a console, he only gets caps, even with the caps key off.

Now, I can see this thru ssh.

Any ideas?

Did you log in with your usename in all caps? If you do, it thinks your terminal can only display caps and converts everything to caps.
