this bug occurred after using the command "apt-get update & & apt-get upgrade" which upgraded the kernel to the version cited

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

it doesn't here, do you get the same with terminator or xterm?

[Gabriel (fgbreel)]

Sorry for late, no, this only occurred on gnome-terminal.
