Hi, the rxvt-unicode instances on my 2 gentoo boxes lose content since a few days. Doing linear output works normally, e.g. cat, ls. Text movements in the upward direction cause problems, e.g. in pagers like man or less or in more sophisticated ncurses users like irssi. When I hit the up-arrow or 'k' key in those applications, the terminal window is cleared, most of the time the first and last line keep in place. It also happens sometimes that the line that should be at the bottom of the terminal is on top and the rest is clear. For illustration I did a short screen capture video of the situation[1]. The video will just be up there for a few days. Currently I don't have a concrete idea how to isolate the problem. Since other terminal emulators don't show this behavior, I guess it's not the fault of ncurses, but again, that's just a guess. I do not think that my configuration is causing the problem because I use the exact same .Xresources on a different system (Ubuntu) and everything works as expected there. I would be very thankful for any hints since currently rxvt-unicode is effectively unusable on my gentoo boxes and I have to use alternative terminal emulators. And we all know that all are a pain except rxvt-unicode.
