Bryn, I have not seen this problem. I'm on a slightly newer gentoo release (1.4rc4)
I'm running using
shh -X -C -c blowfish remote_IP
I'm Gentoo on both ends. I run Evolution multiple times every day with no big problems. I did write this list a week or two ago about the disconnection of ssh hanging on the local end, and needing to do a Ctrl-C to get around that. I got no responses, and the problem seems to have disappeared a few days ago.
Cheers, Mark
Mark,
Thanks for the reply - I've done an emerge -u world recently, so we should be at or around the same versions, apart from the very basic stuff but this seems very ssh-specific.
I've just confirmed it's not just X apps - even ls will do it:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bryn $ ssh hex ls -lR > /dev/null 2>&1 &
[2] 1889
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bryn $ ls

Screenshot.png questframe shot0002.jpg [2]+ Stopped ssh hex ls -lR >/dev/null 2>&1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bryn $The [2]+ Stopped occurs as a side effect of issuing ls - no kb interrupts sent.
If you do anything on a terminal with a background ssh job, it stops.
This just feels like a silly config issue to me but I can't see what I've done wrong!
Also checked and it happens on a vanilla xterm or vt too.
Cheers
Bryn
