It seems it's possible to shoot oneself in the foot by doing C-a k y in a lish screen session; the screen session doesn't seem to respawn (was testing to see if it could be used to reset it after someone in IRC mentioned problems with the lish terminal state being corrupted).

I've just been bit by this. For some reason my lish appeared frozen, so I did the C-a k y, and now it thinks the machine is powered off (it isn't), but dashboard says running.

There is no screen to be attached matching maine.
Your Linode isn't running, or another console session is already active.

Yup. It was fixed for future reboots, not preexisting ones...

So, yeah, right ... "fixed." How does one recover when you kill the screen session? I'd rather not reboot.

I put in a support ticket about this back in December 2007.


Support Ticket 34014 has been updated by 'mgreb'

Thanks for this report, we will look into it.

I assume you had rebooted since this fix was applied?
