Haha, I found it myself! It's in the other ncurses package, and now everything works! (Except I've put "TERM=linum-m" into ./.bash_profile, so now even remote systems get it. Anywhere better? No, don't tell me.... ahah! I can set it in /etc/inittab - add linux-m to the end of all my getty lines. Now it should pick up the correct terminal for remote connections too! Anywhere better this should be defined? Thanks, Tim. -- ICQ #18073712 http://members.xoom.com/thomson
