thanks for the tip!

And, if readers are curious, you really do have to close every open terminal
window before the change takes effect! (On SUSE using gnome-terminal, anyway)
(Oddly enough, it would seem that xterm isn't affected by this, again on my SUSE 2.6.34 system)

@Malt:

I checked and couldn't really find anything relevant. You need to look for Termcap user-settings.

@drooop
Thanks for tip, I looked at the release notes but could not find anything, I'll probably have to look more in depth.

Check out the profile preferences of the recently released gnome-terminal 2.30. You'll love it.

Thanks for great tip!

One question : Could I change some file in my ~/ ?, instead of systemwide.
