Strange Terminal Glitch In Ubuntu Hardy

[coldReactive]

Before anyone jumps on me for using LTS on my magnificent x64 machine; I just want to say that at the moment, I dislike karmic.

Anyway, here's a picture of what's happening:

I suggest to make sure your input language is correct. Dont know if that's it but it's worth checking.

Yes, it's correct, English (United States.)

After hitting OK on language support (even though I didn't change a thing) it told me I had to reboot. I rebooted, and everything's A-OK so far. But I'm going to leave this open just in case.

Edit: Nope, back to doing it. Problem is, it happens at random.

I second this glitch.
10.04 x86_64 server.
Language English.

Also every once in a while my terminal, both from ssh and from local login, after issuing a command like
testparm -s /etc/samba/smb.conf.master > /etc/samba/smb.conf
or
adduser me
or
cat /etc/file

will change characters from english to I dunno some lost sanskrit language or something. Very strange...
