Well yes I tried that of course, btw I'm not using KDE. It appears that I've installed something from cooker that is causing the problem. The terms I've had up before the install[s] don't have the problem - new terms do however. Something is broken from cooker, which isn't a surprise. <g> Now if I could just remember the exact packages I installed 3 days ago... Anyone have an idea? Fonts? My locale is setup correctly and I only have the problem in terminals. Thanks for the suggestion however Bill. > On Thu, 2001-10-18 at 21:33, Steve wrote: > > Wierd problem I'm having just recently.
