From: Jered Floyd <jered@MIT.EDU>
System name: fucking-lunatic.grey17.org
Type and version: i686 8.4.22 (with mkserv)
Display type: XFree86 3.3.6 SVGA
Shell: /bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager: /afs/athena/project/windowmgr/bin/vtwm.gamma
What were you trying to do?
Log in to a Linux/Athena machine on the console.
What's wrong:
When using bash, only 24 lines of the screen are used.
(Additionally, this can lead to bizarre redraw problems
in emacs.)
Typing 'resize' causes all 25 lines to be used.
Login to an account using csh or tcsh does not exhibit
this problem.
What should have happened:
All 25 lines of the screen should be used.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
