> CTRL-A, or CTRL-Q? (CTRL-Q being the opposite of CTRL-S, and what I > guessed at DebConf when this happened to us) I don't remember..:-) When we finally found the magic key, we were using a french installation with a US keyboard, or the opposite....and all of us remember that A and Q are switched in these.....and thus, I don't remember at all if it was Ctrl-A because this indeed was Ctrl-Q or really Ctrl-Q or really Ctrl-A.... Thjis is one of both..:-)
