[cooker-amd64] Remote Xterm/tcsh problem

[John Scott]

Hi all,

Has anyone experienced the following? If I start a remote Xterm session (i.e. by setting
the DISPLAY variable), then it crashes out if the users shell is tcsh, it works fine
if the shell is bash.

For example -

[root@cerberus jes]# xterm -display 192.168.1.4:0

works fine (because roots shell is /bin/bash

jes@cerberus[11:24pm]~> xterm -l -display 192.168.1.4:0

crashes out (because the user jes has shell /bin/tcsh)

the following error is recorded in /var/log/messages -

Dec 22 23:18:21 cerberus kernel: tcsh[6203]: segfault at 0000000035594d08 rip 000000000040c9ca rsp 0000007fbfffd5c0 error 4

Local logins work fine (i.e. jes can login locally fine), it's just starting a remote xterm that fails.

Help?

John.
