This is a rather odd one...has anyone else noticed their gnome-terminal
shrinking in the last month or so? It's a very vague problem I know, but
several times I've noticed my terminal window looks a bit small, clicked
the drag handles and found it at about 76x20 size, instead of the 80x24
it started out as and to which I resize it again. The most obvious
side-effect of this problem is that urpmi's output gets a little broken
- it keeps drawing new lines, so I get output like this:
