I am ssh'd into a remote box, I think it is redhat, but I am not sure how to tell. In my home directory I went through the process of installing screen and all its dependencies from source as it is not already installed.
I can run screen, and it opens fine and gives me a prompt, however any command from ls, to vim, to zsh cause it to simply lock up. I have been googling this for ~6 hours now, but 'screen locks/hangs/freezes' (with obvious additional search terms) brings up too many irrelevant results, and from what I can tell no relevant ones.
There are not many compilation options for gnu screen, what info can I provide to help anyone willing to help me?
cat /etc/redhat-release
(from memory), orlsb_release -a
. Screen should be available from the official repositories, so you could have triedyum install screen
.
