O/S : 11.00 or 11.11
H/W : J5600's J6700's or PC's*
Patch level : Dec2001
PC running Exceed vers 7.# or 6.2
The problem occurs on both O/S's and via remote or local CDE login.
How to reproduce :
test1
login to cde as normal user
open dtterm
current shell /usr/bin/sh
test2
login to cde as normal user
open dtterm
su
If I then run sh and repeat the test I get a ??
the same is true if I had used/run ksh or csh.
test3
login to cde as normal user
open dtterm
su -
run sh still the ^a ? but if I run ksh or csh I get a ??
Why the apparent inconsistency wrt posix shell and the use of su - ..... thoughts welcome.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Show me the money (B#)
xmodmap show anything?
xfd -fn fixed
look okay?
try opening a dtterm with a different font option?
I'll test it later, and see if I come up with anything
going for a smoke..
PS don't you think the salad hat looks like a bunch of shamrock?
PPS do people actually use CDE login from windows?
Later,
Bill

Yes, people actually are using CDE from Windows :) Here on our site, we've got 10 users running Reflection-X to connect to HP-UX 11.00/CDE

Re: Show me the money (B#)

# locale
The su

Re: Show me the money (B#)
fyi I've posted this after 2 days investigation so beleive me I have checked most things you are following the same trail as I have ! What I'd find useful is has anyone first hand seen this behaviour and what are their thoughts .... it happens and it's nothing to do with locale,fonts or stty's :
explanation :
What's the $LANG -> well it's en_GB.iso88591
in a dtterm before any su's
if I su it's still en_GB.iso88591
if I su - it changes to C BUT if I add
LANG=en_GB.iso88591 in roots .profile and try again it's set correctly or same as before but still I see the result so I dont think that's relevant.
stty settings haven't changed ! they're the same in all shells ......
it's nothing to do with fonts cos if it was I would never see any ??'s not matter what shell I was using surely? and I'm not changing fontpaths directly or indirectly.

Re: Show me the money (B#)
/etc/profile.
I see the 'same' problem with TZ if I move the /etc/TIMEZONE to elsewhere.
