Hi, Yet another round on trying to reproduce the bug that ncurses applications (like vim, aptitude, htop, etc.) are not drawn inside screen until the terminal is resized, maybe only after reattaching previously.

I slightly modified the test to not be influenced by my own screen and mutt setup, and I used a UTF-8 terminal like Damyan when he ran into this issue: 1. Start screen with proper encoding for uxterm: screen -c /dev/null -U 2. Start mutt: mutt -F /dev/null 3. Set editor to vim: :set editor=vim 4. Start writing a mail (vim comes up fine) 5. Kill uxterm 6. Start new uxterm 7. Reconnect with screen -c /dev/null -U -r So my question is now: Can anyone who previously ran into this issue reproduce it with Debian Squeeze, Wheezy or Sid (which basically have the same screen package)? If yes, I'd be happy if those who still can reproduce it, could test the screen package which is currently in Experimental (and will go to unstable at latest when upstream has fixed http://bugs.debian.org/644788) if this bug (http://bugs.debian.org/502490, http://bugs.debian.org/468427) is still present there.
