[Bug 1435905] Re: gnome-terminal randomly outputs control characters

Similar thing happens when using an escape sequence to change cursor color ie. echo -ne "\e]12;orange1\a". on Gnome Terminal 3.6.2 (and RoxTerm too) but only when attached to a tmux session. xterm escape sequence for cursor colors works with or without tmux. Attached shows character and 112

I solved my issue by overriding Cr in tmux as gnome-terminal for whatever reason does not support \033]112\007 set-option -g terminal-overrides ',xterm*:Cr=\E]12;gray\007' https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/266 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop

[Bug 1435905] Re: gnome-terminal randomly outputs control characters

Vivid ships 3 parallel versions of vte: libvte9 0.28.x - used by Gtk2 apps such as terminator, xfce4-terminal libvte-2.90-9 0.36.x - a tiny bit older than the newest, used by e.g. roxterm-gtk3 libvte-2.91-0 0.38.x - the newest, used by e.g. gnome-terminal As stated above, the bug was fixed in

I am attaching a log. After some trial and error, I was able to set up my terminal in a state such that I could reproduce the error in a single keystroke. The transcript of the session is: $ script -f /home/$USER/bin/shell_logs/$(date +%d-%b-%y_%H-%M-%S)_shell.log Script started, file is

Edmont's suggestion worked: i.e. updating to the latest version of libvte fixed the problem in both gnome-terminal and terminator. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu.

[Bug 1435905] Re: gnome-terminal randomly outputs control characters

Looks from that other bugreport that it's OSC 112 causing a problem. Support for this escape sequence was added to vte-0.35.2 which appeared in Utopic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu.

[Bug 1435905] Re: gnome-terminal randomly outputs control characters

Could you please get a(n as short as possible) script(1) log of this behavior? Gnome-terminal handles unknown escape sequences worse than other emulators. We'd need to understand whether tmux emits something incorrect, or gnome-terminal (actually vte) just doesn't understand that sequence. --

[Bug 1435905] Re: gnome-terminal randomly outputs control characters

Okay, there's indeed an OSC 112 (that is: \e ] 112 \a) in the output. You could try installing the libvte-2.90-9 package from Utopic (and then restart all gnome-terminal instances), I'm pretty certain this would fix your problem. (I hope it doesn't have dependency problems.) (I'm not giving this
