I had no problems with rxvt until I installed the new ncurses-base package. This obviously has a different rxvt terminfo file cause it doesn't display properly. Ncftp is a good test TERM=rxvt and it's all messed up. TERM=vt100 it's fine. Install the old ncurses-base package and it's fine with TERM=rxvt. excuse my horribly formated email, typing over a very slow link.
