Package: xterm Version: 278-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
When xterm is using Xft rendering of fonts, and the output reach the end of the window, last lines are sometimes replaced by blank lines. The frequency of this behaviour is not regular. For example, you can execute the 'ls' command twenty times and see five times that the last lines are not shown, or see a normal behaviour all times. Alt-tab and other actions cause the screen to refresh and display everything. The easiest way to reproduce this behaviour is call xterm with '-fa' option: xterm -fa 'Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Roman:size=11' and press "return key" until reach the end of the window. Then two in three times the last line is a blank line, rather than the expected prompt of the shell and the cursor. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=es_ES.utf8, LC_CTYPE=es_ES.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xterm depends on: ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libfontconfig1 2.9.0-7 ii libice6 2:1.0.8-2 ii libtinfo5 5.9-10 ii libutempter0 1.1.5-4 ii libx11-6 2:1.5.0-1 ii libxaw7 2:1.0.10-2 ii libxft2 2.3.1-1 ii libxmu6 2:1.1.1-1 ii libxt6 1:1.1.3-1 ii xbitmaps 1.1.1-1 Versions of packages xterm recommends: ii x11-utils 7.7~1 Versions of packages xterm suggests: pn xfonts-cyrillic <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
