Telnet Problem in Linux on ChromeOS
« on: September 03, 2020, 03:12:48 pm »
I've been running MC with Linux on a Samsung Galaxy Chromebook which runs ChromeOS.  It requires me to install manually using telnet and a shell prompt.

A few weeks ago, after a ChromeOS update, telnet stopped working.  It showed a window that didn't look like telnet.  It was blank and had no shell prompt.  I searched several times for help on the Internet and couldn't find a solution.

What fixed it was enabling support for Javascript, which I usually keep turned off and only allow for sites I trust.
