weird problem hitting the backspace key
After i hit the backspace key on my OpenSUSE system,
the system 'generates' a space after deleting the previous character
so, if i type 'ls' and hit the backspace-key, it reads 'l '
where can i start, research where this problem comes from ?
or does anyone know how to get rid of this problem?

Re: weird problem hitting the backspace key
Sounds SuSE-specific. Maybe they are loading a funny keymap? Alot of
things could cause this, also depends on if you're under X11 or are on
the console. What keymap are you using, if any? What font? What
locale? What is the kernel using for NLS (CONFIG_NLS_ISO8859_* and so
on)? Any weird shell key bindings in shell login files? Have a look at
keymaps(5) and go from there. There's too many variables to say
definately what is causing it.
