hello I'm running opensuse 11.1 and when I run make my terminal changes from bash to make then nothing at all....I can type in the terminal but it does nothing. I have never encountered this problem before what could it be I'm very very clueless on this one.

Hi TB,
What exactly are you trying to compile? Have your run configure? If so, did it note any errors? Is there a makefile in the folder you're running make from? Any other relevant details? Does ctl-c or ctl-d get you back to a normal terminal?
cheers,

I'm trying to compile the acer hotkeys package: acerhk-0.5.35 (well was.. see post http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...system-734074/) and yes there is a make file but no configure file. The Install file just says to make then make install, which I did and I just get the freeze up no messages or anything...just nothing.
alright my system is back up and running now so I will say that when I type in m-a: command not found and yes ctr+c brings me back...but the "shell" never changed in the first place...it just does nothing at all
