Hello Adrian, I created a new user, opened mate-terminal, everything seemed ok, then set the theme to "TraditionalOk" which I used with my standard user and the bug appeared again. I also purged and reinstalled mate-terminal after that. Then I played around with the themes. With "High contrast", "TraditionalGreen" and "TraditionalOk" the command line prompt is not displayed, so it could be a bug in mate-themes. However, in all other themes the font colour is white and the background is grey (is this standard?). When I want to change this, mate-terminal crashes (see bug 836239). So with the three themes mentioned mate-terminal is not really usable for me.
