Subject: Emacs 25.1 RC2 - sporadic display errors on Linux virtual terminal.
Date: Wed, 7 Sep 2016 15:59:27 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160907155927.GE2145@acm.fritz.box> (raw)
Hello, Emacs.
On the Emacs 25.1-rc2, I'm seeing worrying display anomalies on a Linux
virtual terminal.
My Emacs is configured with:
./configure -with-gif=no --with-tiff=no --with-gpm
.
What I see is on full speed typing (I type at, perhaps, 10 characters
per second), a character fails to be displayed, the following character
takes its place, and a space is left afterwards. For example, I just
now typed
deal
. This was displayed (in what is basically Text Mode) as
da l
. On typing C-l, the display becomes correct again.
It appears that Emacs goes into some sort of mode where this happens. It
happened to me a few days ago (at the end of an hours long session), and
I just put it down to "one of these things". It's just happened to me
again. I am currently getting one of these errors, perhaps once every
two lines of typed text (where a line is ~78 characters).
Does anybody have any idea what might be happening?
