That was a completely wrong PS1, sorry.. my colors are set from 31m to 37m, I substituted $COLOR by the code in my mail to simply it a bit, but made a typo. For the real PS1 (and COLOR stuff), see my last mail. > > Btw, by creating a new dummy account (you can have one too if you need > > it) with all defaults I still get: > > [27mpower% > > If you cat the typescript in your terminal, do you see the [27?

I have the problem with TERM set to xterm or xterm-debian; with xterm-mono it is fine, also with rxvt. I am using Gnome Terminal mostly. I do not seem to have the problem with xterm itself, but got the same with aterm when I set TERM to xterm instead of it's rxvt default. So for the moment I do TERM=rxvt when I launch a terminal as a work-around.
