[Bug 635258] Re: Garbled chars in xterm
Its baaack in Onieric Beta 1, intel 4500, unity 3d. To reproduce, just open xterm and start typing what you type will be garbles, but the output will be fine. Similar corruption to before, with a white box covering the first part of any letter typed, and scrolling leaving a few pixels of the fonts on the left side of the terminal window. Now to figure out how to re-open this bug against Onieric... Also, since this has now come back at least twice, and xterm has uncovered other previously unknown bugs (like nouveau w/ 3d support crashing Xorg with fixed width fonts) can we get the ubuntu QA team to add 'xterm' to a test case somewhere? xterm is a basic application, and problems like this with it often indicate real issues that other applications will eventually hit. Just run it, make sure you can type into the window, and that all the fonts look right on both the input and output text, and that it's white text on a black background. Its a simple 30 second test, and will catch issues like this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/635258 Title: Garbled chars in xterm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/635258/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Curiously, I have the "cursor droppings" on xterm screens -- the little vertical bars before each typed character -- but this NEVER happens in emacs 22 or emacs 23.

[Bug 635258] Re: Garbled chars in xterm
I'm not sure what it means that this bug is marked "fixed released"... it seems to have been fixed on Oct 17 but it's not Oct 21 and there's still no package available (for Maverick) containing this fix. I do have all my Ubuntu repos enabled including proposed. What's the relationship between a bug being marked as "fixed released" and a package showing up available for download? Is there some kind of extra state that is set or comment added to launchpad when the package is available? This bug is just killing me; the borderWidth change discussed in the Red Hat bug doesn't work reliably, and having to resize each of my windows when I create them (esp. given the other long-standing Ubuntu bug about resize handles being impossibly thin) is very frustrating; I use xterm exactly because my workflow tends to create/destroy a LOT of terminal windows, all the time.
