Public bug reported: Xubuntu desktop 18.04.1
$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS Release: 18.04 gnome-terminal: 3.28.2-1ubuntu1~18.04.1 libgtk-3-0: 3.22.30-1ubuntu1 dconf-editor: 3.28.0-1 Per workaround instructions in comment #8 on bug 838381 (of which this is not a duplicate), I set /org/gnome/desktop/interface/cursor-blink-timeout to a large value, less than the stated maximum of 2^31 - 1. I saved the change, exited dconf-editor and restarted the computer. What I expected to happen: Cursor in GTK-based terminal emulators will no longer stop blinking after 10 seconds. What happens instead: Cursor in GTK-based terminal emulators continues to stop blinking after 10 seconds. Of note, the cursor-blink-time *is* honored. ** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: xfce4-terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: xfce4-terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1798481 Title: org.gnome.desktop.interface.cursor-blink-timeout not honored Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: New Status in xfce4-terminal package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Xubuntu desktop 18.04.1 $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS Release: 18.04 gnome-terminal: 3.28.2-1ubuntu1~18.04.1 libgtk-3-0: 3.22.30-1ubuntu1 dconf-editor: 3.28.0-1 Per workaround instructions in comment #8 on bug 838381 (of which this is not a duplicate), I set /org/gnome/desktop/interface/cursor-blink-timeout to a large value, less than the stated maximum of 2^31 - 1.
