Is anyone else experiencing a sporadic issue where the terminal becomes temporarily non-responsive? The mouse continues working and the keyboard works fine with other applications during the hang.
(I'm not sure if the mouse/keyboard input works with other terminals during the hang, and I'm not sure I can mouse-select text within the hung terminal -- I'll check that next time)
It always corrects itself after 5-10 seconds, but is really annoying regardless. At first I thought it was a vim thing, but then I noticed it once while just tailing a logfile -- thus I think it's actually a terminal thing. Here are some system stats if this helps nail it down:
- Ubuntu 8.04
- Full-disk encryption from the alternate install CD
- Gnome desktop
- Compiz with "Extra" visual effects
- Sony TZ270N laptop
Is there any other information I can provide that would be helpful?
Does this issue sound familiar to anyone else?
And is this even posted in the right forum?
Thanks!
