Hi, Mike. It seems impossible to construct a testcase regarding this bug. I've been trying to notice a pattern for weeks now. You can just sit there typing "ls" over and over and occasionally the output will not show properly. My guess is that there is some sort of time syncing issue going on between X and compiz. It happens in gnome-terminal and also xterm windows. It does seem to be more frequent in the xterms than in the gnome-terminals. But there's also a distinct other behavior where sometimes windows that were covered up do not show their text upon re- display. The cause of this may be different but it too is unreproducible: same conditions... different results.
Is it a problem with the terminal program? Probably not. I've never seen this behavior in years of using these programs and I've used them for years. Only when compiz is running. I think best thing to do is wait to see if other people are experiencing this and go from there. I'll look into making a video of the problem sometime in a week'ish when I get a chance. It's not easy to explain in words. -- terminal output frequently not current or blank https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/244356 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
