What font is that?

This certainly smells like a dupe of #189 to me.

As a workaround, you can set your TERM to vt100 or putty (if your distribution provides a putty termcap.) The putty terminal definition is almost exactly xterm-256color but it doesn't offer "repeat graphic character", the behavior dialog is using.

Right before you launch menuconfig. Try this:

TERM=putty make menuconfig

(or:

export TERM=putty
make menuconfig

)

To determine if putty is a valid termcap, you can check whether /usr/share/terminfo/p/putty exists. If not, use vt100.
