Problem in X-window on SCO-Unix

[some1]

Hello, friends

I am using fvwm95 2.0.43a on the SCO Unix 5.0.5 downloaded from Sco's Skunkware package but after using it the Enter and keypad Enter keys no longer cause any thing in all X-clients. Neither them nor their combinations with control or alt or shift keys no longer cause any thing in X sessions. The only place that they work, is before logging in to X at scologin username/password checking screen( first screen).

Can anyone help me how can I give back the existence of Enter key to my X session ? Any comment will be appreciated.

Good Luck

Losing carriage controls is a common theme when messing around with emulators. I offer the following tips:

Hitting CONTROL-J ~should~ still give you a carriage control. So you should be able to do things like:
% ls CONTROL-J and get some results.

Make sure that your "export TERM=vt100" is set to match that of your emulator. "setenv TERM vt100" if in csh.

Next, try: % stty sane CONROL-J ( If necessary ).
This should restore a decent emulation.

If all this fails, try looking at % stty -a and toggling options that look like they have something to do with CR,
like: igncr and icrnl. Check the stty man page. You can
toggle these by typing: stty -igncr and stty igncr.

One last desperate thing to try:

if the Control-J is working, try simply going into vi:
% vi junk CONTROL-J

This has a habit of restoring emulators.
