Operating Systems Solaris weird problem - terminal not refreshing; sleep not terminating Post 302333465 by methyl on Monday 13th of July 2009 06:41:23 AM

You don't mention any details of the terminal itself.

1) Check the value of $TERM is set, and that it is set to a value which matches you terminal and that the terminal itself is set up correctly.
If the unix "clear" command does not clear the screen, this usually means that the TERM is wrong.

2) Check "stty -a" values.
Clearly "stty intr" is not set to ctrl/C . (It's echoing ctrl/C rather than actioning it).
In your example ctrl/Z has backgrounded the task. This is normal behaviour.
