Description Camaleon -- 2009-09-19 17:52:02 UTC

After running "yast" command from gnome-terminal I'm getting the following behaviors:

1. ncurses interface gets "corrupted" (blue background gets white zones which are unreadable).

2. Gnome-terminal (all tabs that were opened when launched "yast" command) gets white background (that is, I cannot read "any" text, all is white, both texts and background).

This is not happening when using "xterm".

Tested with LiveCD, 64 bits (gnome)

Additional info: this behavior also happens after launching "mc" (Midnight Commander) under Gnome terminal.
