Tumbleweed GNOME terminal indefinite blinking cursor after command
by LacunaBlue from LinuxQuestions.org on (#54AX5)
I've been having issues with terminal commands. If I enter something like "zypper search vlc" or "grep dim", the command will be accepted, but the cursor blinks indefinitely.
Sometimes the cursor stays solid and doesn't blink for a while, if that means anything. I am able to close the terminal window at any time, so it's not freezing up. It's been blinking for about 20 minutes now after entering "zypper search vlc".
Initial search of the forums and google for 'terminal hang unresponsive' etc yielded no results.
Troubleshooting suggestions would be appreciated.
