Hello,

I do this
# exec irpsion5 -s reboots.log
No IRDA device found

it gives an error.

I wanna repeat it, so I press "Up" on keyboard to get this failed command again into prompt, and It is the previous one, not the :
exec irpsion5 -s reboots.log

it is reproducible with all failed comamnds. and this was a given example.

In stable, it works nicely those failed command and pressing up arrow on keyboard can show the bash history failed or not :(

Cursor keys in xterm haven't changed... You might get more information by
pressing the keys in a "cat -v", to see exactly what's sent.

The version of xterm can also be shown by "xterm -v".
