Me too, on one of computers there is Parabola GNU/Linux-libre and Emacs M-x works in console quite well, but without Guix stuff. On a remote server I have guix package manager, and Emacs works fine through terminal. I am thinking if it is related maybe to readline and your locale. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns Sign an open letter in support of Richard M.
