When pressing the sequence CTRL-X CTRL-C in EMACS the program asks you if
you wish to save your file. Answering y (yes) to this question leaves you
waiting forever as if you had pressed CTRL-S. The only way to get back to
the shell is to press CTRL-C. 

I tried changing the local modes, input modes with the STTY command
without sucess. Surely there's a bug with this board since I can run EMACS
with the same terminal plugged on one of the CPU's serial ports.

Anyone ever encountered this kind of problem ?

[[ Which version of the OS?  There is a patch for the ALM-II driver that
should be applied if you are running 3.x.  A similar fix is in the 4.0.1
patch kit.  Sorry but I don't have a bug ID.  --wnl ]]
