Re: Terminal changes between Ubuntu versions

Augusto,

There are some off-by-one pixel rendering bugs in mutter (gnome-shell) at the
moment, which can occur inside app windows and might be related. Please report a
bug by running:

ubuntu-bug gnome-shell

and attach a screenshot of the problem to it.
