My laptop has freshly installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS along side with Windows 10. This problem started happening when I upgraded from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04 (I guess). But, then I formatted my ubuntu partition back to 18.04.

But, when I open terminal, I see the following key combination being typed automatically for infinite times:

^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~^[[24~

I have tested with external keyboard too, so i feel keyboard is not an issue. Also, this happens only in terminal, not in text editor or anywhere else.

enter image description here

I have no clue what it is. Please help

  • Check your .bashrc file. You may have included something there that causes these characters. – vanadium Jul 11 '21 at 13:26
  • @guiverc Sorry for the confusion, I updated the title. It's Ubuntu 18.04 LTS – Abhi Jul 12 '21 at 06:43
  • If the problem persists, check [this answer](https://askubuntu.com/questions/198730/how-to-restore-bashrc-file) to restore your `~/.bashrc` file to default - that might help. – Artur Meinild Jul 12 '21 at 08:10
  • @ArturMeinild I have freshly formatted my system. So, I believe `bashrc` won't be corrupt – Abhi Jul 12 '21 at 10:28
