2007-05-19 17:12:11 Micah Cowan screen: statusexplanation I can't confirm this on Feisty. Is this still an issue for you? Couldn't confirm in rxvt-unicode, but can confirm for xfce4-terminal. My xfce4-terminal sends ^? (ASCII DEL) for backspace, and claims to be xterm, but under screen, the backspaces become ^@ (ASCII NUL). I'm not sure what is causing this, as it works fine under gnome-terminal and (for me) rxvt-unicode, both of which are also using ^?, and gnome-terminal claims to be xterm. It may be that xfce4-terminal isn't as compatible with xterm as it claims to be. If you are still experiencing issues with rxvt-unicode as well, what version of that package do you have installed?

2008-10-18 17:09:10 James Westby xfce4-terminal: statusexplanation Hi, I'm closing the xfce4-terminal task, as that uses vte, so if vte is fixed xfce4-terminal will be fixed. Thanks, James

2008-11-24 23:54:13 Bryce Harrington screen: statusexplanation Sounds like just the vte patch needs sponsored, so closing the screen task. Feel free to reopen if something else needs investigated there (or maybe better to file a new bug).
