I assumed it was a libvte bug.
I've experienced this also when running "make menuconfig" against 2.5.66 while running 2.5.66 on a redhat9 system.
I filled a bug-report on bugzilla.rehat.com and they told me "bug is reproduced here. workaround is to minimize the gnome-terminal while there is intense terminal activity"... so I'm supposed to config my kernel while it's terminal is not visible... great :)
I'd not mind trying to debug gnome-terminal if I didn't need to install bazillons of libs for his recompile... - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
