From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040518 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: Scrolling downwards in a maximised gnome-terminal somtimes causes the top halves of lines not to be drawn. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-terminal-2.6.0-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start gnome-termimal 2. Switch res to 640x480 (xrandr -s "640x480") 3. Maximise the gnome-terminal window 4. type dmesg<return> 5. Move the scrollbar to the top of the gnome-terminal 6. Move the scrollbar down quickly but do not let the scrollbar reach the bottom Actual Results: Some lines are of text have only their bottom halves drawn Expected Results: Lines of text to always be fully formed Additional info: Corruption appears to only occur when dragging the scrollbar in a downward direction. Corruption can also when using a mousewheel to scroll and shift-pagedown (although it is rarer). Highlighting a single letter on a corrupted line causes ALL corrupted lines to be redrawn properly. Parts of a corrupted line that are obscured by another window are redrawn properly once exposed. This problem can afflict any maximised gnome-terminal but is particularly apparent for me at 640x480. Could well be a dup of / related to bug 108194 although the screenshots in that bug do not looks similar to the corruption I see.

And it's already been reported to redhat bugzilla too - bug 104768 . Sorry about that - I only searched for bugs in gnome-terminal... Next time I'll do a search by a single word in the description on all components.
