Version: (using KDE 4.0.1) Installed from: Compiled From Sources OS: Linux If History mode is 0 then when the text reaches the end of the window, konsole outputs garbage on the screen.
How did you change the history mode? I cannot reproduce this locally using konsoleprofile or Scrollback -> Scrollback Options to change the settings.
konsoleprofile HistoryMode=0 # triggers it for me konsoleprofile HistoryMode=1 # fixes it konsoleprofile HistoryMode=2 # works as well
The bug was intended to be filed against trunk, I mistakenly reported it against 4.0.1. Sorry. BTW: in order to reproduce I do: 1) open konsole 2) $ konsoleprofile HistoryMode=0 3) hit <Cr> until it scrolls out of the screen 4) now type $ ls the result is that the ls output is not displayed. Doing again $ ls makes the first ls result appear some rows before.

Does turning the scrollbar off via Settings -> Edit Current Profile -> Scrollback have the same effect? What graphics card and driver combination do you have?
Yes, it has the same effect. I'm using an ati R9600 with fglrx 8.02. Tnx Vincenzo
More info... even using HistoryMode=1 I get problems. Using things that enable line scrolling (e.g. vim, less ...), when scrolling down, the last line of the screen is not updated until I hit the cursor up key. It is like the display area were one line smaller then it should be until I go up one line with cursor (which triggers redrawing I guess). More over: resizing the window makes the screen to be updated correctly... so the code that gets called after a window resize is doing the right thing (tm).
I believe this is a duplicate of bug #158523 which happened after the update to Qt 4.4 Could you please add a mention to that report of your video card / driver combination? *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 158523 ***
