Hello lists, I'm sorry, those quite weren't the answers I was going for, it was getting late and I was probably getting lazy. I have posted what you're asking me on #tmux on freenode in almost this complete form and I want to make this clear to everyone who hasn't been in irc, since I got some complaints that I wasn't precise enough. As I hopefully mentioned before, with the bug present, pressing Ctrl+L for redraw makes display failure much worse and also makes irssi's status bars disappear.
As of tmux-cvs 20100830 and tmux 1.3 release the bug which was introduced by the move of stdin, stdout and stderr to libevent objects did stay inherent. Git bisect (http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-bisect.html) has helped me identify the commit http://github.com/ThomasAdam/tmux/commit/3b74e93d60da392c46eae6b40391606f73b4db02 as being the first commit where this regression was introduced, thanks to Thomas Adams for his git mirror. I did know the version I built at 20100721 was fine, since irssi did indeed work like a charm on tmux until then. Software versions in use (the -1, -3, -9 are my distro's package releases): * Distribution: recent Archlinux synchronisation with rxvt-unicode-256color * Systems tested as well: Archlinux VM with lxterm, Ubuntu Lucid Lynx VM with gnome-terminal * tmux-cvs downloaded and built just minutes ago * libevent-1.4.14b-1 / 1.4.13-stable-1 on ubuntu * irssi 0.8.15-3 / 0.8.14-1ubuntu4 on ubuntu Terminal emulators tested: * rxvt-unicode-256color 9.07-9 TERM=rxvt-256color, inside TERM=screen-256color * xterm 261-1 TERM=xterm, inside TERM=screen-256color (from tmux.conf) * lxterm 0.1.7-1 TERM=xterm, inside TERM=screen * gnome-terminal 2.29.6 TERM=xterm, inside TERM=screen Screenshots (pretty self-evident, wer're talking about an irc client): * two on my host machine (rxvt-unicode-256color): http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/8hueuez1/tmux_1.jpg http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/xsvp6aza/tmux_2.jpg * host machine (xterm): http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/pycvgs22/tmux_6.jpg * two on my testing vm (lxterm): http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/9i6gxbwo/tmux_3.jpg http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/l8w8cs57/tmux_4.jpg * current tmux-cvs on ubuntu lucid lynx (gnome-terminal): http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/s5s93i6z/tmux_5.jpg * expected output / irssi outside tmux (gnome-terminal): http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/fuptvyv1/tmux_7.jpg http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/xkrwv0mm/tmux_8.jpg * tmux -vvvv logs, where I launched irssi and made the bug visible (on ubuntu): http://paste.xinu.at/Vgxs7/ While creating this log, I found the problem also seems to be related to the terminal's size, which seemingly needs to be larger than 80x25 to make the bug visible, I recommend testing on a >40 line terminal window. kind regards, mar77i On Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 9:50 AM, Nicholas Marriott <nicholas.marri...@gmail.com> wrote: > By this I mean: > > - TERM inside and outside tmux? > - what platform? > - what libevent version? > - does it happen in xterm? > - tmux -vvvv logs? > - a screenshot before and after would be handy. > > This change is not tmux switching to libevent, tmux has been using > libevent for several versions, this is moving client stdin, stdout and > stderr to use libevent as well.
