This morning I pulled up three rxvt terminals and ssh into a remote
server. In each of the three ssh sessions I tried to su and failed with
the following error message:
%su root
Password:load: 0.53 cmd: su 38176 [ttyin] 0.00u 0.00s 0% 1556k
load: 0.53 cmd: su 38176 [ttyin] 0.00u 0.00s 0% 1556k
Client is FreeBSD 8 stable (i386)
Server is FreeBSD 7.2 Release
An identical report was filed against aterm:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=143786
Using a standard xterm, or XFCE Terminal I could su just fine. Also
typing stty status '^M' before su, as suggested by Ruslan Ermilov solved
the problem.
