Description of problem: gnome-terminal (and other vte-based terminals) draws over the last hardstatus line of screen when it gets there. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-terminal-2.27.91-1.fc12.i686 vte-0.21.4-1.fc12.i686 How reproducible: put following lines in your .screenrc hardstatus alwayslastline hardstatus string '%{= kG}[ %{G}%H %{g}][ %{=kw}%?%-Lw%?%{r}(%{W}%n*%f%t%?(%u)%?%{r})%{w}%?%+Lw%?%?%= %{g}][%{B}%Y-%m-%d %{W}%c %{g}]' run gnome-terminal run screen hit enter until you redraw the status line reproducible always Expected results: status line should stay there and don't get redrawed
Fortunately this has been fixed in master since. Will be in next release I'll release on Monday.
Confirmed vte-0.21.5-1.fc12.x86_64 fixes the problem for me. (currently in Koji)
