[Xen-users] Ctrl+C does not work in virtual console

[Immanuel Scheerer <immanuel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I have a problem with the virtual console. I run Xen 3.0.1 (compiled 
from the sources) on debian 3.1 (as dom0 and domU) on an AMD Athlon 64.
I can't terminate programs with ctrl+c. If I try for example to ping a 
machine, ping runs forever and cannot be stopped from the console. 
ctrl+z does then not work either. But if I do the same with ssh, 
everything works fine. There are more commands which cannot be 
controlled with ctrl+c and ctrl+z, like lynx and 'more'.
What confuses me, is that for example I can exit emacs using "ctrl+x 
ctrl+c" without problems (in the virtual console). If I run ping in a 
shell in emacs, I can stop the process pressing ctrl+c twice (as 
expected). Emacs also is put in background if I press ctrl+z.
When you type something on the shell (without enter) and press ctrl+c, 
usually the line is aborted and a new empty one is started. In my 
virtual console this is not the case.
I hope someone of you can give me a hint what causes this strange 
behavior. It's impossible to work with the virtual console, because if 
one tries to check network connections, the session is over.
Immanuel
