Where did you get 0.8.5.1-32.3.x86_64 from? I'd be happy to load it and see if I have the same problem or not.

Well, I can confirm that it doesn't work in 0.8.5.1-32.3.x86_64 from that 422 repo, nor in 0.8.5.1-32.2.x86_64 from the 423 repo, but that's not suprising since it did not work in the stock 0.8.5.1-1.1 either! I was apparently wrong earlier when I said it did work in 0.8.5.1-1.1 as it's not working now. It doesn't ever change from the original user to 'follow' a new login executed in that terminal window. Sorry, I don't know what I was looking at earlier today :-/
Maybe that never worked, in any version? Do you remember clearly that dynamic title change was working for a newly logged in user in an existing window on a previous version?
Yes, it was working previously in my 42.2, although not always. For instance, it doesn't work in another computer I did not update. Maybe it is affected by another thing from the "update repo", not the "xfce repo". I distinctly remember that the tab where I had done "su -" displayed "root@machine". And when doing "ssh" it displayed the name of the target machine. For some commands it "works" now: try to start 'mc', the terminal follows; what happens now is that when you exit 'mc' it does not go back. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
