Bug Description

Even with the last version of screen-profile (1.0-0ubuntu1~ppa2), I can't scroll in my screen history with shift pgup/pgdown and also the scrollbar does not adapt.

server (on which screen is running) : intrepid ubuntu server
client (where gnome-terminal and xterm is connected to the server by ssh) : intrepid ubuntu desktop

All configuration files are kept with default one (that is to say, there is "termcapinfo xterm ti@:te@" in "common" file, sourced by ubuntu.screenrc). Other features like shift-pg up/down, or shift-tab are working well…

Seems to work if I replace :
termcapinfo xterm ti@:te@
by :
termcapinfo xterm* ti@:te@

After, what, how? I can't explain it :/

on the server (outside of screen):
$ echo $TERM
xterm

on the client:
$ echo $TERM
xterm

I did confirm this by login on to didrocks' machine remotely. It appears that the screen doc recommend using xterm*. I would therefore recommend using it.

This bug was fixed in the package screen-profiles - 1.5-0ubuntu1

---------------
screen-profiles (1.5-0ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  [ Dustin Kirkland ]
  * bin/mem-available: added a memory count script
  * bin/load-average: added a load average script
  * debian/install, profiles/common, profiles/ubuntu.screenrc:
    updated with mem and load status scripts
  * profiles/common: fix scrollback, LP: #309393
  * profiles/*.screenrc: renamed to drop the ".screenrc" bit as this was
    unnecessary; this will break early users, they will need to re-run
    select-screen-profile to fix
  * screen-launcher, screen-install, debian/install: install screen-launcher
    to /usr/bin, drop the symlinking to ~/.screen-launcher, just install by
    adding /usr/bin/screen-launcher to ~/.bashrc; install screen-launcher
    to both bashrc and bash_profile

  [Nicolas Barcet]
  * Allow selecting which windows are opened by default in
    screen-profiles-helper
  * Allow help message not to be displayed when starting
