           Summary: Character fragments remain on screen
           Product: konsole
           Version: 1.2.1
          Platform: Mandrake RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: razorblack at home.ro


Version:           1.2.1 (using KDE 3.1.0)
Installed from:    Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.1 3.2.2-3mdk)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-0.13mdk

I'm using Mandrake 9.1, but I've seen this problem in other versions as well (Red Hat 8 for eg.).

1. After doing a "man info" (for eg.) two-pixel wide charcter-fragments remain on screen, and are not cleared even by doing a "clear".

2. In most man and info pages (eg: "info man")  the - (minus) character appears as a small box, letters seem to overlap and there're even a few green pixels where there should be no colour (like at some "--" characters)  Some pages appear with correct "-"s though (eg: "info tar")!

3. Nr 2 might be linked to an unusual other problem: in the Linux text mode (alt-F1) console doing an "info man" shows three squiggly characters for every minus sign... Is this a codepage error? 

Thanks!
