Terminfo For Console
« on: October 03, 2006, 02:43:26 am »
Is there a terminfo definition for the OZ console? I tried to keep TERM unset, set it to linux, xterm, rxvt; Midnight Commander doesn't work correctly in any case.

..bk..

Thanks, now it works far better, although there are some visual artifacts anyway.

with commenting out the TERM=vt100 line in /etc/profile,  TERM is set to "rxvt" by, ha, rxvt. (i use gpe) this works quite ok.

PS: for some console apps the default font size is still to big (vi for instance),  so you get garbeld output when wrapping lines around. i have it set to 14, this seems small enough for vi and big enough for me ;-)

hmm, I set mine to "xterm" in /etc/profile and MidnightCommander works fine, also Kismet runs in color as well.

hm, i think "xterm" vs "rxvt" doesn't quite make a difference...
