Re: Screen terminal freezes

Well, so much for that idea.  I am still getting the hangs, despite logging
into a shell and then running screen (instead of using ssh -t),  and there
is still no output to the terminal or any kind of message being displayed
that I can see regarding the hang.

A screen terminal will just randomly hang at times while outputting data.
Sometimes things will work for a long time, but eventually a freeze
occurs.  Sometimes the freeze happens at a sooner time.   It is as if a
CTL-S was issued, but CTL-Q or CTL a q will not get it going again.

(sorry... top posted on a bottom posted email earlier). :)
