Message-ID: <5214@watcgl.waterloo.edu> Date: 17 Jul 88 14:02:57 GMT Distribution: comp Organization: U of Waterloo, Ontario Lines: 29 I have a Rev 4.3 B2000 and a Rev 2 Bridgecard. I am running a vanilla Workbench 1.2 (with the bridgecard stuff added). I am getting my bridgecard window by "run pcwindow color" in my Startup-Sequence. I have the pcwindow setup so that it comes up on my workbench screen. When I reboot the bridgecard (ctrl-alt-del) it reboots fine; however if I try to do anything in the original AmigaDos window while the reboot is taking place the CLI starts seeing the characters from the keyboard as if I pressed ALT+that key. (I.E. I press 'a' and the CLI echos 'ALT-a'). If I play with the ALT key and typing ALT-characters the problem goes away. The problem doesn't seem to show up on customs screens (I.E. I currently have a WB screen, with the PCwindow and the AmigaDos window, and a second screen. The problem occured in the AmigaDos window and did not occur with the second screen.). My questions are : Is this a known bug ? Is this a harmless bug ? Can anybody out there reproduce this ?
