I'm having big problems using an xterm running on X11R6.3 on Solaris 5.6 to work on a Debian hamm box. The terminal does not draw properly in curses programs like ncftp and vi is practically unusable -- as seen as I hit enter to move down a line it clears the screen!
The terminfo definitions (dumped with infocmp) are included below. I installed the debian xterm definition on Solaris but this just made the xterm work badly on local Solaris stuff too and didn't fix the linux problem. Any ideas? thanks, hamish Solaris's xterm: # Reconstructed via infocmp from file: /usr/share/lib/terminfo/x/xterm xterm|vs100|xterm terminal emulator, am, km, mir, msgr, xenl, cols#80, it#8, lines#65, acsc=``aaffggjjkkllmmnnooppqqrrssttuuvvwwxxyyzz{{||}}~~, bel=^G, blink=\E[5m, bold=\E[1m, clear=\E[H\E[2J, cr=\r, csr=\E[%i%p1%d;%p2%dr, cub=\E[%p1%dD, cub1=\b, cud=\E[%p1%dB, cud1=\n, cuf=\E[%p1%dC, cuf1=\E[C, cup=\E[%i%p1%d;%p2%dH, cuu=\E[%p1%dA, cuu1=\E[A, dch=\E[%p1%dP, dch1=\E[P, dl=\E[%p1%dM, dl1=\E[M, ed=\E[J, el=\E[K, el1=\E[1K$<3>, enacs=\E(B\E)0, home=\E[H, ht=\t, hts=\EH, ich=\E[%p1%d@, ich1=\E[@, il=\E[%p1%dL, il1=\E[L, ind=\n, ka1=\EOq, ka3=\EOs, kb2=\EOr, kbs=\b, kc1=\EOp, kc3=\EOn, kcub1=\EOD, kcud1=\EOB, kcuf1=\EOC, kcuu1=\EOA, kent=\EOM, kf0=\E[21~, kf1=\E[11~, kf10=\EOx, kf2=\E[12~, kf3=\E[13~, kf4=\E[14~, kf5=\E[15~, kf6=\E[17~, kf7=\E[18~, kf8=\E[19~, kf9=\E[20~, rc=\E8, rev=\E[7m, ri=\EM, rmacs=^O, rmkx=\E[?1l\E>, rmso=\E[m, rmul=\E[m, rs1=\E>\E[1;3;4;5;6l\E[?7h\E[m\E[r\E[2J\E[H, rs2=@, sc=\E7, sgr=\E[0%?%p1%p6%|%t;1%;%?%p2%t;4%;%?%p1%p3%|%t;7%;%?%p4%t;5%;m%?%p9%t^N%e^O%;, sgr0=\E[m, smacs=^N, smkx=\E[?1h\E=, smso=\E[7m, smul=\E[4m, tbc=\E[3g, Debian's xterm: # Reconstructed via infocmp from file: /etc/terminfo/x/xterm xterm|vs100|xterms|xterm terminal emulator (X Window System), am, bce, km, mir, msgr, xenl, colors#8, cols#80, it#8, lines#24, pairs#64, acsc=``aaffggjjkkllmmnnooppqqrrssttuuvvwwxxyyzz{{||}}~~..--++\,\,II00, bel=^G, bold=\E[1m, civis=\E[?25l, clear=\E[H\E[2J, cnorm=\E[?25h, cr=^M, csr=\E[%i%p1%d;%p2%dr, cub=\E[%p1%dD, cub1=^H, cud=\E[%p1%dB, cud1=^J, cuf=\E[%p1%dC, cuf1=\E[C, cup=\E[%i%p1%d;%p2%dH, cuu=\E[%p1%dA, cuu1=\E[A, cvvis=\E[?25h, dch=\E[%p1%dP, dch1=\E[P, dl=\E[%p1%dM, dl1=\E[M, ech=\E[%p1%dX, ed=\E[J, el=\E[K, el1=\E[1K, enacs=\E(B\E)0, flash=\E[?5h\E[?5l, home=\E[H, hpa=\E[%i%p1%dG, ht=^I, hts=\EH, ich=\E[%p1%d@, ich1=\E[@, il=\E[%p1%dL, il1=\E[L, ind=^J, is2=\E7\E[r\E[m\E[?7h\E[?1;3;4;6l\E[4l\E8\E>, ka1=\EOw, ka3=\EOu, kb2=\EOy, kbeg=\EOE, kbs=^H, kc1=\EOq, kc3=\EOs, kcub1=\EOD, kcud1=\EOB, kcuf1=\EOC, kcuu1=\EOA, kdch1=\177, kend=\E[F, kent=\EOM, kf1=\EOP, kf10=\E[21~, kf11=\E[23~, kf12=\E[24~, kf13=\E[25~, kf14=\E[26~, kf15=\E[28~, kf16=\E[29~, kf17=\E[31~, kf18=\E[32~, kf19=\E[33~, kf2=\EOQ, kf20=\E[34~, kf3=\EOR, kf4=\EOS, kf5=\E[15~, kf6=\E[17~, kf7=\E[18~, kf8=\E[19~, kf9=\E[20~, kfnd=\E[1~, khome=\E[H, kich1=\E[2~, kmous=\E[M, knp=\E[6~, kpp=\E[5~, kslt=\E[4~, op=\E[39;49m, rc=\E8, rev=\E[7m, ri=\EM, rmacs=^O, rmam=\E[?7l, rmcup=\E[2J\E[?47l\E8, rmir=\E[4l, rmkx=\E[?1l\E>, rmso=\E[27m, rmul=\E[24m, rs1=^O, rs2=\E7\E[r\E[m\E[?7h\E[?1;3;4;6l\E[4l\E8\E>, sc=\E7, setab=\E[4%p1%dm, setaf=\E[3%p1%dm, setb=\E[4%?%p1%{1}%=%t4%e%p1%{3}%=%t6%e%p1%{4}%=%t1%e%p1%{6}%=%t3%e%p1%d%;m, setf=\E[3%?%p1%{1}%=%t4%e%p1%{3}%=%t6%e%p1%{4}%=%t1%e%p1%{6}%=%t3%e%p1%d%;m, sgr=\E[0%?%p1%p6%|%t;1%;%?%p2%t;4%;%?%p1%p3%|%t;7%;%?%p4%t;5%;m%?%p9%t\016%e\017%;, sgr0=\E[m\017, smacs=^N, smam=\E[?7h, smcup=\E7\E[?47h, smir=\E[4h, smkx=\E[?1h\E=, smso=\E[7m, smul=\E[4m, tbc=\E[3g, u6=\E[%i%d;%dR, u7=\E[6n, u8=\E[?1;2c, u9=\E[c, vpa=\E[%i%p1%dd, -- Hamish Moffatt, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Debian packages at ftp://ftp.rising.com.au/pub/hamish.
