  • Delete your ~/.byobu folder. This folder contains most of your keybindings, and config settings.

  • You can also launch byoby-config and change your configuration there (It does not allow changing screenbindings, only notification panel). This is the same binary which is launched on pressing F9

  • Lastly try reinstalling with a purge (apt-get purge byobu) and install it again (apt-get install byobu)

  • Delete /tmp/tmux-[UID] folder (where [UID] is your user id).
  • Delete ~/.tmux.config

Byobu uses tmux as its backend by default so the way it behaves might depend on tmux configuration. Even though tmux ls shows no sessions removing the /tmp/tmux-[UID] might help.
