Hi everyone Been working on a Rasperry Pi without graphical user interface and simply log in on the command-line. One thing that has been puzzling me is why I can no longer scroll backwards/forwards using SHIFT+PGUP/PGDOWN. Instead I have to use "| less" on output now. Turns out that this functionality got removed from the kernel: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/the-latest-kernel-rele... Not every device will have a graphical user interface, especially not IoT devices. So that's rather annoying... :-( Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann Dept. of Computer Science University of Waikato, NZ +64 (7) 858-5174 (office) +64 (7) 577-5304 (home office) https://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ http://www.data-mining.co.nz/

That's handy to note. Most of the time I'm remote on consoles anyhow (so using some form of terminal emulator) - time to break out screen or tmux? Cheers, Warren.
