Weird login behavior.
 
Hello

In my old Slack after pressing enter i have:
login: <ENTER>
login: <ENTER>

Sorry for my poor english.

I am not sure I understand. If you enter the logon do you get the password prompt? Can you actually log on? What is the weird behavior?

I think the weird behaviour is the missing newline after the first “login:” prompt. When you hit the <ENTER> key, you would expect the next prompt to go on a new line, I guess. I cannot try and reproduce this issue at the moment, because my laptop is somewhat messed up. I will wait for Slackware 15, and reinstall both Slackware Stable and Current (both 32-bit and 64-bit) at that point.
