So, the rectangle text insertion cursor is where it is supposed to be, but is blinking much faster than it should; do I understand you correctly now?
When this happens, how long does it last? If you move the mouse pointer away, does the blinking go back to its regular pace? If you move the mouse pointer back to the terminal tab, is it blinking way too rapidly again? What if you begin to type a command, therefore the text insertion cursor moves to a new cell? We've never had any similar report, so it's quite puzzling, hard for me to imagine how this could happen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2097620 Title: anomal blinking of a cursor in terminal Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I open a terminal (the vanilla one that pops up when I press ctrl+super+T), open several tabs, and use them for few hours. Then after a while, a text position indicator (cursor) starts to blink rapidly when a mouse cursor is on the area on the tabs where the hostname is printed.
