Hello everyone,
My slackBox has an err. on root account as following:
If I am typing for eg.
'#man kill' then its output exposed as:
KILL(1) Linux Programmer�<80><99>s Manual KILL(1)
NAME
kill �<88><92> terminate a process
SYNOPSIS
kill [ �<88><92�<88><92>s signal | �<88><92�<88><92>p ] [ �<88><92�<88>
<92>a ] [ �<88><92�<88><92>�<88><92�<88><92> ] pid ...
kill �<80><90�<80><90>l [ signal ]
DESCRIPTION
The command kill sends the specified signal to the speci
fied process or process group. If no signal is specified,
the TERM signal is sent. The TERM signal will kill pro
cesses which do not catch this signal. For other pro
cesses, it may be necessary to use the KILL (9) signal,
since this signal cannot be caught.
Most modern shells have a builtin kill function, with a
usage rather similar to that of the command described
here. The �<80><98>�<80><90>a�<80><99> and �<80><98>�<80><90>p�<80><99> o
ptions, and the possibility to
specify pids by command name is a local extension.
lines 1-23
etc...
//END
Notes:
1. The err. only happens on root account
2. it occurs with some commands only such as 'kill', 'pppd' and so on
Almost of commands are appearing normal
3. normal users do not have err. like that
4. My locale: LANG=en_US.ISO8859-1. However, b4 i changed locale to
en_AU.UTF-8 default of LANG=C. After I switched to UTF-8 and back to
LANG=C, problem happens. Even tho' I changed back to default, or
en_US.ISO8859-1.
has Anyone experienced w/ this kind of err. pls help me. I am very
appreciated.
kind regards
