Hi Cooters, I have a user running Coot from the official binaries (coot-0.6-pre-1- revision-2486-binary-Linux-i386-centos-4-python-gtk2) on Red Hat Linux 4.6.
Using Gnome Terminal, when coot runs, the shell output is garbled. It looks like this: (⎽␊├-⎽≤└└␊├⎼≤-␌⎺┌⎺┤⎼ 0.10 0.20 0.80) (⎽␊├-⎽≤└└␊├⎼≤-▒├⎺└-┌▒␉␊┌⎽-␊│⎻▒┼␍␊␍ 0) (⎽␊├-▒␌├␋┴␊-└▒⎻-␍⎼▒±-°┌▒± 1) (▒┼␍┌␊-⎼␊▒␍-␍⎼▒┬-└⎺┌␊␌┤┌␊-┬␋├-⎼␊␌␊┼├⎼␊ "/┤⎽⎼1/≤±⎺┌␍±┤⎼/␋┼├␊±⎼▒⎽␊/1BIS.⎻␍␉" 1) R␊▒␍␋┼± ␌⎺⎺⎼␍␋┼▒├␊ °␋┌␊: /┤⎽⎼1/≤±⎺┌␍±┤⎼/␋┼├␊±⎼▒⎽␊/1BIS.⎻␍␉ PDB °␋┌␊ /┤⎽⎼1/≤±⎺┌␍±┤⎼/␋┼├␊±⎼▒⎽␊/1BIS.⎻␍␉ ▒⎽ ␉␊␊┼ ⎼␊▒␍.

It _doesn't_ happen on a build of revision 2439, so some change in between 2439 and 2486 seems to be causing this. I went through the commit log on Google Code, but didn't see anything obvious. If the user does a hard reset of Gnome Terminal, it apparently fixes the issue, and it's happening on multiple machines in their lab. To add another data point, if we capture stdout to a file and view the file, the text looks normal. Uh, any ideas? I'm mostly out at this point. -ben -- | Ben Eisenbraun | Software Sysadmin | | Structural Biology Grid | http://sbgrid.org | | Harvard Medical School | http://hms.harvard.edu |
