Bug Description
When I run /bin/more in a terminal window (tried both LXTerminal and xterm), the tab terminal application locks up at the end of the file and is no longer responsive to keyboard input. Old window text below the end of the file being 'more'ed is not erased. A new tab created in the same application window works fine.

Thanks for reporting your problem.
I ran more in xterm on a KDE desktop. After reaching the last line it displays "END" in the lower left corner. When I press the 'q' button I am back at the command line. Even if the file displayed has only one line the old content of the window is erased.
The issue seems not to be with package util-linux. But possibly there is a problem with xfce or the Nvidia driver.
