Launch gnome terminal in its default window size and type anything until you reach
the right hand edge of the screen and continue typing and the text wraps to the

text wraps to the following line as expected

Expand the window to full screen then revert to normal size before you type
anything and again it works as expected.

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

minimize the window.

This is a bash issue. It occurs only on a newly opened terminal windows or with
a fresh bash instance.

Different proofs:
1. Start xterm and hold down a key => same behaviour like in gnome-terminal.

2. Start gnome-terminal.
2.1 Type in a random command and hit enter. Then hold down a key => wrapping
occurs like expected.
2.2 Run /bin/bash inside this window and hold down a key => no wrapping.
2.3 Run /bin/zsh inside this window and hold down a key => wraps correctly.

Comment 2 David Bentley 2006-02-07 00:45:05 UTC
Fixed with the latest bash update.

Closing as resolved in rawhide.
