Re: gnome-terminal "paint" issues?

Thanks for the reply!  I should mention I'm on f16.  Interestingly, this 
seems to happen more frequently the larger the terminal window is.  It's 
easily reproduced doing repeated "ls -d .??*"s and I've also noticed 
that if I wait long enough (upwards of two minutes), it'll repaint on 
its own, but it always repaints instantly if I hit enter again.

I'm using a plain bash shell with a default .bash_profile and an 
uninspiring .bashrc.  The shell is to the local machine.  The profile 
settings for gnome-terminal are unaltered (the "Default" profile) save 
that I don't display the menu bar (not that this changes anything).

TERM is set to xterm (same as on other machines I have f16 on that don't 
exhibit this issue) and both COLUMNS & LINES change when the window is 
resized.  stty -a settings are unaltered from the default (and match the 
other machines' settings).  This particular machine uses the English 
(Dvorak) layout which it inherits from the system as I pass 
KEYTABLE=dvorak to the kernel (my other machines have Dvorak keyboards 
and, consequently, are set to English (US)).

I went so far as to create a new user to see if the user would exhibit 
the same issues (and set that user's layout to English (US)), and the 
new user has the same issues.  As an aside, did you know that if you 
create or delete user using the "Users and Groups" application, it logs 
you out of your session?!

The onscreen keyboard (funnily in QWERTY), doesn't appear to have this 
issue, if that helps.
