No, I didn't, but I do now. Perhaps I'm being exceedingly dense, but
what is the "console window"? When I right click on the window where I
have this problem (remember, it's ONLY the up/down arrows that don't work
and ONLY in the "view" window, in the "command" window they work fine),
there isn't an option that says anything about "linux console" or
anything even similar.
