SUMMARY

I paste  for example like now this into konsole:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libnvidia-gl-590:i386 

and authentication comes but I can not type. Nothing happens when I do. Maybe connected with the fact that I just pasted the above content into the window. If I close process and konsole and restart konsole again, I can type.

OBSERVED RESULT
