I'm using Eterm (cvs version which is masked), when i launch it the hole system goes to 100% CPU ussage, takes like 10secs to display the prompt, then when i click on a menu happens the same, i've been looking in the (gentoo) forums, and noone seems to find a 'logic' solution, all the others E app's works fine. I'm wondering is something related with unicode support, but not sure as i've been playing with it for a while now and doesnt seems to solve the problem. I've also asked to ppl in IRC and noone (using another distro) seems to have the same problem. I found the same problem in a previous (beta) version of xterm but now it seems to be fixed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch Eterm. 2. Try to navigate through a menu. Actual Results: the hole system goes up to 100% CPU usage at every step. Expected Results: work as fast as xterm/aterm/konsole/gnome-terminal/etc All other enlightenment-applications works really fine, the problem is only with this one (Eterm). Now that i remember, the same problem with xterm was reproduced when i compiled it with toolbar support.
`emerge --info` is missing
does eterm-0.9.3-r4 and libast-0.6.1-r1 work ?

- does eterm-0.9.3-r4 and libast-0.6.1-r1 work ? Same result. Also tried both cvs versions (9999) Eterm and libast. Getting the same results. And cvs version of libast with Eterm-0.9.3-r4. Same result.
ive seen other people report this behavior but no one has tracked it down
wow, i was just about to test blender and i found something weird, i get exactly the same problem (Lagged menus that makes my CPU go up to ~100%). I can use the program normally, but everytime i try to click some menu (not just a drop-down menu, but also a textbox or something), i get a lag. I think it could be some kind of lib ;-\.

seems to be locale related
yes, it is.

Eterm doesn't support utf-8 (yet) If i start it with a iso locale like: LC_ALL="de_DE@euro" Eterm & all is fine ;) regards tom
a dirty hack in my ~/.bashrc alias Eterm='LC_ALL="fr_FR@euro" Eterm --trans' and now the alias bring it @the speed of light

This is probably a dupe of #71747
I agree with Chris Bainbridge about this bug being a dupe of #71747. The proposed solution in that bug is "emerge font-daewoo-misc font-isas-misc font-jis-misc" and it does work, at least for me.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 71747 ***

I originated Bug 213728, as this didn't show up in the search I did for all bugs with Eterm as my search term. Some more information: using "LANG=C Eterm" as the command to open an Eterm from my fluxbox 0.9.4 menu is a workaround.
