No mattter which user envokes screen, it quickly comsumes 99% of the cpu. A top reveals: last pid: 1657; load averages: 1.00, 1.00, 1.00 up 1+02:02:09 14:29:00 30 processes: 2 running, 28 sleeping CPU states: 14.4% user, 0.0% nice, 85.2% system, 0.4% interrupt, 0.0% idle Mem: 9876K Active, 43M Inact, 21M Wired, 2696K Cache, 22M Buf, 44M Free Swap: 512M Total, 512M Free PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPUCOMMAND 247 marty 57 0 1780K 1324K RUN 23.6H 99.02% 99.02% screen 332 marty 28 0 1912K 992K RUN 1:07 0.00% 0.00% top The same problem applies to a dual i386 FreeBSD 4.6 system I'm using. >How-To-Repeat: Choose to install screen during the initial install of FreeBSD 4.7 and envoke it. It will reach 99% CPU usage within seconds. >Fix: Remove the 'screen' package. Instead go to the ports tree after the install and do a 'make install' from there. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
