Description S. A. Hutchins 2004-11-30 09:35:31 EST

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5)
Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0

Description of problem:
I create a text file, foo. The text file contains the lines "teh
trukey jmpus oevr teh cwo" in different forms. I run the command:

% ispell foo

At first, everything is right and proper, but after completing a check
of the first line or so, text redraws over itself or appears in odd
locations, making it impossible to perform the check with any context.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.50.5-3.fc3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a text file that contains some mispelled words.
2. Start gnome terminal and check the file using ispell.
3. Complete checking more than one line of the file.
    

Actual Results:  After checking the first line or so, things didn't
look right.

Expected Results:  There should not be any screen corruption.

Additional info:

This might be a problem with gnome-terminal and/or vte? It doesn't
happen in an xterm or on console.

This is a known gnome-terminal xterm-emulation bug. (see bug 134300)

Setting TERM=gnome is a temporary workaround.

Comment 2 Matthew Miller 2006-07-10 19:13:35 EDT

Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security
updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and
reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and
hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test
release, reopen and change the version to match.

Thank you!
