Terminal 'newline' problem with Redhat 8.0

[Andrew Hadinyoto]

I've seen a posting about this or something similar but I haven't seen the answer for it yet
(sorry if I am wrong).

I am running RH8.0 and I noticed that X-based console (Konsole, Gnome console, xterm)
ignores a "print" without end-of-line.

For example, I've tried:
in bash: echo -n "hello"
in perl: perl -e 'print "hello";'
in C: printf("hello"); // in simple main function

All prints nothing. Just returns the prompt. They are all the same for Konsole, Gnome
console and xterm.

However, if I tried to do the same in text-based console (runlevel 3), it prints correctly
(without newline). This is supposed to be the expected behavior. I tried it on Redhat 7.2
and it does not have this "problem" (or "feature").

Printing with newline at the end of the string is fine, though.

There must be some config or switch to disable this behavior. But I couldn't find it.

Can somebody please help? Thanks in advance.
