I know, search the forums.  Like they say on the X-FIles, the truth is out there.  I even remember reading the answer to this.

On a Dell computer, using DSL embeded (0.8.4) I can't use my arrow keys to move around or to use the command recall feature in Bash.  Does anyone rember how to set this up?

Thanks

this may well be a qemu issue, can you use the arrow keys in X?

yes I can use the arrow keys normally in dsl, just not in dsl embeded.  They don't work in x or in the terminal mode.

Have you tried the newer dsl embedded 0.9.0.1

It has a newer version of qemu that may solve the keyboard problem.

Still has the same problem for me, but I have a non-standard keyboard.

I really gotta get a better one. XD
