We have a number of Suns that we administer either via the serial port or a
RSC card. Sometimes, when logged in to the console on the serial port, the
display will become corrupted (either by catting a binary file or generating
an escape sequence somehow). I have tried everything I can think of to
reset this, but no dice.
I've tried:
/usr/ucb/reset
stty sane
echo ^v esc c
The only thing that does fix things is a reboot.
If I'm on a RSC card, if I exit the console back to ALOM, the display is
fine. Resetting the RSC doesn't help, as soon as I drop back to the
console, the display is messed up again.
I searched through the archives, and found one other person with the
problem, but no solution.

Is there any way to reset the console without rebooting the system?
Thanks in advance. I will summarize.
Eric
