This I only wanted to show you because it was so distorted. Sorry to say, but my setting is everywhere »TERM="xterm"«, also on my openSUSE 13.2 x64 (I am working on.) I entered now this two commands LOCALLY (in Konsole of KDE, configured to use xfree4): export TERM="linux" yast Yast pops up with this appearance (see Link below). www.hantsch.co.at/_temp/Snap142.jpg <-- "Wonderful" borders So this must be another "silent change" between 42.3 and 15.0 deep inside. I cannot imagine that Leap 42.3 didn't use RPT while Leap 15 does? So I found another issue with Yast. (rofl) #1: Why was -> System -> Language -> Detail "Locale-Settings for user root" removed from Yast? Should be re-inserted. There is absolutely no reason for removing it, it only forces users to namually edit /etc/sysconfig/language. #2: I don't know what has changed from 42.3 -> 15.0. If 42.3 didn't use RPT, it would be smart to stick with that. Compatibility is often of higher value than saving a few milliseconds by using "RPT". Or add a setting to YaST to enable/disable using of RPT. ------------- But this has nothing to do with my iso-8859-x <--> utf8 problem. sometimes I watch that lines show 2-byte characters (as an UTF-8 char shows up in a 8-bit only terminal). This is not easily to reproduce, but I will look carefully and report where I saw that when it happens again. I use always the settings »ROOT_USES_LANG="yes"«, because I prefer everything being in German language, also when logged in as root. :) Am Samstag, 19. Jan 2019, 09:36:58 schrieb Wolfgang Bauer:

And now I execute again 'yast' (so this is again the textmode version). Here is are link to screenshots of what I get now (same windows of yast): www.hantsch.co.at/_temp/Snap138.jpg www.hantsch.co.at/_temp/Snap139.jpg (A sub-module)
The problem on these screenshots doesn't look like it's related to the locale at all. It's likely rather this I think: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/1054448 https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/1056020 https://bugs.kde.org/384620
In short, recent ncurses versions use the RPT control sequence to repeat characters when $TERM is set to "xterm". But older konsole versions didn't support that.
As a workaround, set TERM to e.g. "konsole" or "linux", you can change that in konsole's profile settings or manually with "export TERM=xxx". Or use xterm, which supports RPT since something like 20 years...
If you're inclined to, it should be easy to backport the fix to older konsole versions too: https://phabricator.kde.org/D10064
