I guess bash reacts to what it understands about the capabilities of the
terminal you are using. In konsole I see
$ echo $TERM
xterm
also there are various settings in the konsole 'settings' menu about
terminal emulations. Maybe fiddle with the equivalent in the Gnome
console app. If you have KDE installed, maybe give konsole a try (it'll
work under Gnome). What does bash do in the Ctrl-Alt-F1 virtual consoles?
