[Bug 861268] [NEW] text corruption in terminals (xterm, urxvt) and emacs

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Using tmux with urxvt results in frequent screen corruption.

I am running tmux as "tmux -2" to enable 256 colour mode and my
.tmux.conf contains:

set-option -g default-terminal "screen-256color"

... to enable 256 colours for apps running inside tmux. When corruption
occurs, neither clearing the screen with "clear" or "tput clear" helps.
What does seem to help is switching to another tmux window and back to
the problematic one.

This configuration used to work fine in natty.
