I think there are weird character sequences which can convince xterm to
stop clearing the screen until you do a full reset. That may even be
correct behavior.
On the other hand, "reset" should certainl work after a full reset. How
was your TERM variable set? Was there a remote login involved anywhere
in this equation?
