Dear Sir/Madam,
I have noticed what appears to me to be a bug in tty. I use Slackware
GNU/Linux 8.0 with GNU Shell Utils 2.0. I use the Linux Kernel 2.2.19. When
the login screen appears after booting if I press the right arrow on my
keyboard, which places [C in the username space then press enter to type in the
password, the case of the letters changes to uppercase. This affects the
password prompt and everything else I type even if I then make a successful
login later. The only way to return to normal appears to require me to login
successfully then log out again. I have only found this with this version of
GNU/Linux, a Red Hat distribution that I have used before does not appear to
posses this behavior. I do hope this small report is useful for you.
Many Thanks
Mark Pawson.
