From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0.1 Description of problem: Using gnome-terminal via ssh/telnet to Unix (HP-UX 11.11 and Solaris 9) box running curses based application, some escape sequences were intermitantly not rendered, particular attribute change after cursor postion. The effect was as though the leading escape character was being dropped i.e. the visible characters were displayed. (tcpdump showed escape character was present). This occurred after update to latest FC3 version of libvte( vte-0.11.13-1.fc3 ). Going back to libvte.so.4.4.0 from previous version vte-0.11.11-6 fixed problem Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): vte-0.11.13-1.fc3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run curses application, particularly with line drawing but not essential 2.Observe results 3. Actual Results: Display is corrupted Expected Results: Clean display Additional info: I am sorry that I cannot easily give you a concrete example on how to reproduce. However both the curses based applications we use suffered from this problem. Curiously 'vi' (which can be affected by curses issues) did not show this problem. I am willing to assist in fixing the problem (testing etc)
