[Lynx-dev] display bugs in Linux kernel 4.19 that show up in lynx

2018-11-14 Thread russellbell
They disappeared with 4.19.2.  The only difference in the
Linux .config is CONFIG_CRYPTO_SPECK=m , which appeared in 4.17.1, has
disappeared.

I’ve had a similar experience with Linux framebuffer console
during boot:

I never looked at figuring things out, but I’d say that it
is buggy, at least in some Linux versions.

Quoth Thomas Dickey:  'Using what terminal (and what $TERM)?'

TERM=linux
tset -r also returns 'linux'

It's non-X, framebuffer, mode 773, 170x48 characters.  There's
a new option in 4.19, "Framebuffer Console Deferred Takeover
(FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER)".

What un-happens is the blanking of portions of the screen that
are supposed to be blank to the left of the first displayed character
but not between them or to their right; lines that are totally blank
don't inherit old characters.  For instance I indent for  - the
indented space inherits what was in the previous screen.  The same
happens for centered lines, indented lists and tables...

infocmp (the author's name looks familiar...) returns:

#   Reconstructed via infocmp from file: /usr/share/terminfo/l/linux
linux|linux console,
[blah-blah-blah]

PS: I fetched the ncurses source from github and built the test
programs, if that's any help.

[Lynx-dev] display bugs in Linux kernel 4.19 that show up in lynx

2018-10-22 Thread russellbell


I built kernel 4.19 this morning.  Now artifacts from previous
screens are left behind in lynx; I haven't seen the same in other
apps, perhaps because my lynx uses ncursesw and I haven't yet run
another app that does.
Has anyone tips on how to test this further?
