Other terminals I tested don't show this strange behavior, including: xterm, gnome-terminal, lxterminal, rxvt. Hence I assume this issue is related to xfce4-terminal or one of its dependencies. Can you try with sakura too? Also, it might be helpful to try with a different user (or more exactly an empty terminal config). Also, I wonder if the shell can be involved here.

Can you try with sakura too? Also, it might be helpful to try with a different user (or more exactly an empty terminal config). sakura doesn't show these problems. Interestingly a new user neither. But I couldn't figure out which config is involved. Removing ~/.config/xfce4/ didn't solve the problem and there is no ~/.Xdefaults file. And even more confusing, after changing a single setting in xfce4-terminal the problem also shows up with the new user. And it persists, even after removing ~/.config/xfce4/ and rebooting. So there must be another config involved that is created by xfce4-terminal. Any suggestions which file that could be? Does changing any setting lead to the same problem on your system? Also, I wonder if the shell can be involved here. Can you tell us which one you use? Both bash and dash show these symptoms.

No. All the xfce4-terminal config is managed under .config/xfce4/terminal Also, I wonder if the shell can be involved here. Can you tell us which one you use? Both bash and dash show these symptoms. Tried with bash (I usually use zsh), still can't reproduce. -- Yves-Alexis signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Hi, after further investiations it seems to be a timing issue. Sometimes it works without problems, but most of the time it doesn't. Even with a new user and a clean home it sometimes occurs on the first run of xfce4-terminal but not always. When setting the background to be transparent the problem seems to occur more likely but this could just be a coincidence.
