Ever seen anything like this?
Only upon reboot, all my autostarted xterm windows print a series of garbage lines before the bash prompt, and the number of garbage lines happens to equal the length of the prompt string.
I log in in text mode and startx through a .xsession file. This is X11, not wayland, and I configre two X displays as :0.0 and :0.1, each running openbox and tint2 instances. My xterm autostart from .xsession looks like
exiting X11 to text mode and running startx again and the garbage lines dont appear. They only appear after a fresh reboot.
For purposes of testing PS1='user@\h:\w$ ' as set in /etc/bashrc.
Any clues?
