Thread: Unable to sudo in terminal


oneiric / unity, asus 1215n laptop.

strange one. today unable sudo in terminal (or in byobu). entering correct sudo password when prompted fails. after killing failed auth process ^c terminal no longer echoes keyboard presses. new terminal session echo, fails again after ^c failed sudo attempt.

outside of terminal, no problem. example, synaptic accepts same sudo password. condition occurred after placing laptop in standby , on. condition persists upon logout / login (w/out going standby). reboot fixes it. second time i've observed one.

intrigued , feeling less secure....
