[gnu.bash.bug] Problem with bash from an xterm on Apollo

sridhar@surya.usc.edu (M. A. Sridhar) (10/04/90)

I run X11R3 on an Apollo DN3000 with Domin/IX 10.2, and I use xterm to log into
a DECstation on the local net. And I built GNU's bash to run on the DECstation.
The problem is that when I run bash, and execute say ls -FC under it, about half
the output does not show up!

But bash behaves just fine when I dial in directly to the DECstation or log
into it directly. This seems to be a problem with Apollo's xterm combined with
bash. Has anyone else seen this? BTW, the version of bash I built is 1.05 
with patches, ftp'ed from uunet.uu.net. I tried rlogin'ing to another Sun
workstation that runs bash 1.01, but there things work just fine! I'm puzzled.

Any help is appreciated.
