Actually I'm talking about gnome-2 stuff. #94745 multiload-applet-2 graphs are off by 3 pixels #94896 libzvt-2 uncorrect display of terminal-content #94897 libzvt-2 word select anomalys The last two are the same bugs you mentioned above for 1.4. At least the "uncorrect display of terminal-content" should be fixed -- I dont like my terminal to lie to me.
