Hi all,

I have a strange issue, and feel it _could_ be a mrxvt issue.

Info:

Slackware 12.1
Fluxbox (cvs version) WM
Latest svn mrxvt

If you are unaware, Slackware uses a 'package tools system' with
'pkgtool' being a menu driven bash script system - scene shot
here:

http://www.slackware.com/config/packages.php

pkgtool can be got from latest Slackware source here:

http://ftp.lanet.lv/ftp/mirror/Slackware/source/a/pkgtools/

if you wish to see the code.

Now my issue is this.  When I first startx and use pkgtool for the
first time, all appears to function normally until I exit the
application... then mrxvt screen goes completely black with the cursor
at the top left of the screen.  Then, everytime I go to use pkgtool, I
ALWAYS get the black screen from then on after, until I restart X again.

If I run xterm, pkgtool works OK.  If I jump across to a virtual
console, again pkgtool works OK.

UPDATE!  I just found when mrxvt is in this 'blank state with cursor at
top left', if I resize the terminal window via mouse window dragging,
the menu appears and I can navigate the menu UNTIL I select an option,
then I get the black screen again with cursor to left.  Resizing again
makes the menu appear etc. etc.

I have run mrxvt in debug mode via gdb, but no output on this.  I have
run pkgtool in the 'script' program', but that just reports exactly
what pkgtool does (correctly).

I build mrxvt with this line:

./configure --enable-everything --disable-debug --disable-jpeg --disable-png 
--disable-next-scroll --disable-xterm-scroll --disable-plain-scroll 
--disable-sgi-scroll --disable-greek --disable-cjk --disable-menubar 
--disable-utempter --disable-mouseslipwheel --disable-transparency 
--disable-selectionscrolling --disable-keepscrolling --prefix=/usr

And help on this issue would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Nick
