 Posted: Tue Apr 10, 2018 9:42 am Post subject: Invisible output on konsole application (Mathematica) |
 |
|
Hi,
I am using Mathematica on a KDE Konsole, and strangely, the printed characters are invisible. An example clarify the problem. Usually, if I open Mathematica and type "1+1" + Enter I get the following output
| Code: |
$ math
Mathematica 11.3.0 Kernel for Linux x86 (64-bit)
Copyright 1988-2018 Wolfram Research, Inc.
In[1]:= 1+1
Out[1]= 2
|
Instead what I see is:
| Code: |
$ math
Mathematica 11.3.0 Kernel for Linux x86 (64-bit)
Copyright 1988-2018 Wolfram Research, Inc.
1
+
1

That is, every keystroke prints the character and goes to new line without carraige return. The output also is weird, in that I only see the result "2" with a lot of new lines and without the usual "Out[1]=" before.
This problem appears when I use Konsole on the affected machine, but strangely, also if I open a KDE konsole on another machine, do a ssh on the affected machine and then launch mathematica. However, on the machine affected by the problem, if I login from a terminal (one of those accessible by Ctrl-Alt-FnX), the mathematica output works perfectly. So I am posting it here because, presumably, it's a KDE problem.
I use UTF-8 encoding on the konsole. I tried changing the encoding, with no solution.
Any clue where I should look for? |

The problem you reported doesn't look like an encoding problem. For that reason, it doesn't help to change the character encoding in konsole. It looks like a terminal emulation mismatch.
1) Does it help to start Mathematica with option '-rawterm'?
2) Please post the output of 'export | grep TERM' after you logged in using ssh (where output is garbled) and after you logged in using one of the Ctrl-Alt-FnX terminals (where output is fine). |

Thanks a lot! That indeed makes the output fine.

Loggin via ssh where the output is garbled I get
| Code: |
$ export|grep TERM
declare -x TERM="xterm-256color"
|
On the termnals where the output is OK i get
| Code: |
$ export|grep TERM
declare -x TERM="linux"
