Hello.

I'm trying to build OpenWRT and installed Buildroot according to Wiki pages:
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/buildroot.exigence
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/build

Now I'm trying to make menuconfig according to Wiki page, but can't use it properly, it has significant graphical issues:

How can I fix it?

Seems like you resized the console window after you started make menuconfig, this causes issues sometimes.
Or loading make menuconfig under the program screen as well.

No, I'm did not resized window or used screen, and this glitches appears even if menuconfig started on FBCON pseudo-terminal (ctrl-alt-f2).


UPD: It's grc problem. I'm have such lines in ~/.bashrc:
# grc
if [ -f /usr/bin/grc ]; then
...
  alias make="grc --colour=auto make"
...
fi

Running /usr/bin/make menuconfig works fine. Solved.
