[Bug 464783] Re: `qemu -ncurses` 80x25 vs gnome-terminal 80x24
And for completeness, this is totally configurable in gnome-terminal. Edit -> Profile Preferences -> Default Size -> 25 rows ** Summary changed: - `qemu -ncurses` 80x25 vs gnome-terminal 80x24 + gnome-terminal should default to 80x25 for application compatibility -- gnome-terminal should default to 80x25 for application compatibility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464783 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu-kvm in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

>From my little perspective, it seems like it would be nice if gnome- terminal defaulted to 80x25. A quick search and a read of wikipedia seems to indicate that 80x25 is the most common format: * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/80x25 "By far the most common text mode used in DOS environments, and initial Windows consoles, is the default 80 columns by 25 rows, or 80×25, with 16 colors. This mode was available on practically all IBM and compatible personal computers. All 80×25 modes also had a virtual 80×24 mode, used by some applications that needed a status bar on the last row, like terminal emulators. In reality, it was the same 80×25 mode, but restrained by software to make the last row unaccesible." I'll copy the bug over to gnome-terminal, but I don't really want to get in the middle of flamewar about something like this. -- gnome-terminal should default to 80x25 for application compatibility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464783 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu-kvm in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I'm marking the qemu-kvm task "invalid" as I think qemu is doing the "right thing", by emulating an 80x25 console. ** Changed in: qemu-kvm (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- gnome-terminal should default to 80x25 for application compatibility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464783 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu-kvm in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
