ls -a<enter><keep enter pressed>
do it in a largish directory (my home dir), and after several tries, one
of the output lines gets corrupted:
"/ works/__________________________________________________"
^^^^^^^^^^^ extra underlines till end of line
the correct output should be:
"/ works/"
These underlines appear only if you keep the enter key pressed, or if you
do "ls" after a longer idle time.
This could be a "bash", or a virtual console problem. I'm using the color
ls, the "corrupted" lines are only the "directory" ones (blue on a vanilla
Slackware ls)
i've had this problem for a long time (all the 1.3.* kernels?), but couldnt
reproduce it.
I'm using SVGATextMode with a 100x36 text screen ....
any ideas?
