DomTerm freezes when using sudo

mcarans opened this issue 3 years ago · comments

If I start DomTerm, then do sudo xed, type my password, then press CTRL-Z, then DomTerm freezes - I am not usually able to type my next command eg. bg.

This time it does look like a flow control problem, with the following in the log:

 [2021/07/28 14:24:35:4501] I: [2021/07/28 14:24:35:4501] I: session 1 paused (flow control) 268435454 bytes ahead sent:546 confirmed:548

I also get freezing without sudo if I run some docker build commands but it's harder to replicate. Let's see if any fix that you come up for the sudo problem will also fix the docker building.

This should fix the problem:

ctrl-pause-patch.txt

Doing fg leads to some awkward echoing.

Yes that fixed it. Thanks for investigating!

Closing as seems to be working fine
