dmesg output is truncated #1351

When I excute dmesg from the shell within guake, the output is truncated. When I run it several times, it is truncated at different lines. Most of the time, I end up at the end of a dmesg line with no shell prompt. Sometimes I see this error: dmesg: write error.

I get at the complete output by piping into less.

This seams to be a issue related to vte. But i can't confirm this with guake version 3.3.2 nor HEAD anyway. Does this also happen with different terminal emulators?

also does not have any problem with dmesg. Maybe install libutemp ?

I'm not currently experiencing this bug.
