hi, i made my own PS1 line to make stuff look abit more funny:
PS1="\e[1;33m[\e[36;1m\u\e[01;[EMAIL PROTECTED];1m\H:
\e[01;34m\w\e[01;31m\e[1;33m] \[\e[0m\]"

and i place it in ~/.bashrc.
thats fine!

but with that line i can only use 1/4 of my terminal:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~$                                                |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
---------------------------------------------------------------------

but if i begin to type like this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~$ cd /mnt/media/movies/                          |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
---------------------------------------------------------------------

it just goes and overwrites the line's beginning:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~$ cd /mnt/media/movies/                          |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
                                                                    |
