They seem to be different problems, as I am running on a terminal (not
emacs) and I do get suggestions for the completion. It only messes up
the line.
I've searched this list and found a few suggestions, such as compiling
from source (with the readline dev libraries) and disabling colors. I
tried the former, but it seems that the process crashed my laptop. (I
*think* it overheated, but I am not sure.) Which is funny on itself,
as I had done it before and this laptop is not that bad. (It's a
Thinkpad T60 - Centrino Duo (not 2 Duo, though) with 3GB of memory.)
The second one does work, for what it worth, but it is a bit of a
shame to lose color... (Of course, I can live with it.) But maybe
this helps someone figure out what the issue really is?
To be more clear, here is what happens:
t60[~]$ sage
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Sage Version 4.3.3, Release Date: 2010-02-21 |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sage: a=87435027504
sage: a.fac<TAB>
a.factor a.factorial
sage: a.factor
^
|
cursor moves
here ("e" of "sage")
I can continue to type (overwriting "e: a.factor") and it works, but
it makes it hard to read.

I am using 4.3.3 (binary for Ubuntu 9.04).
Thanks again for your help!
