Package: xterm
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6
Severity: normal
the triggering problem is that when the xserver switches away, it seems
to keep its key states.
that becomes a problem, if the command that causes the switch away is
started from an xterm, as then the enter key stays pressed. that's "half
as bad" if it is a background command, as then one is "only" flooded
with prompts. however, when the command blocks, the xterm stops
processing events. it shows a black screen, the cpu usage is zero
and strace indicates that select() times out once per second.
