That's unfortunate. I don't have those specific versions available, but I do have a KDE system I can try it on. Has it worked for you previously? What if you run it without squishing (-S); not that this should affect that behavior? What is $TERM set to? Thanks!

This is my first time trying tp out. Yesterday I happened to wish for a better-than-more pager on Windows that I can install along with my distribution as a dependency and the very next day saw IO-Pager :-) Running without -S still gives similarly garbled output (sometimes large empty block in the middle, and sometimes the inversed status line at the bottom got smeared to the top). My $TERM is xterm-256color. Setting it to xterm did not help. Using gnome-terminal (3.34.2) and xterm (348) are better. I do still see the smeared status line if I keep pressing Up arrow after I get to the beginning of file. But the empty block does not seem to happen. Hope it helps.
