I used chrubuntu to install Xubuntu on a new Acer C7 chromebook. One thing that's not working correctly is use of the up-arrow key in the terminal...rather than recall the last command it writes: ^[[A



Anyone know why this is and/or how to fix it?

The terminal is running sh instead of bash which you are used to. Type bash and you will get what you are looking for. To make this permanent when you open up a terminal change your default shell in /etc/passwd.
