What release of PuTTY are you using? I'm using PuTTY 0.63, which is the latest release. In this version, the default value for the terminal type string is xterm. At least it is for me. I have to explicitly change it to putty, even after setting the remote character set to UTF-8. Make sure the terminal type string is all lower case. Terminal type strings are case sensitive. They have to match the terminal type definition in ncurses. The putty terminal type definition in ncurses can be found in /usr/share/terminfo/p. You can also try a terminal type string of xterm-utf8. This terminal type definition in ncurses is found in /usr/share/terminfo/x. The latest version of PuTTY can be downloaded here: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty > > And the line drawing in some programs works fine with it but with some > like apt no :-(.

First of all, the proper upgrade procedure for an upgrade from wheezy to jessie goes like this. First, become root. Then, edit /etc/apt/apt.conf and remove any "default-release" specification that may exist. Save the file and exit the editor. Then edit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove any releases defined except wheezy. Then change wheezy to jessie. Then, comment out the jessie-updates site and the security site, since these should not be used with the current testing release. Save file file and exit the editor. Then issue the following series of commands: apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade I do not recommend the use of the -y option. This, of course, assumes that you are starting out with an up-to-date wheezy release to begin with, no packages are on hold, all packages that have been removed but not purged have been purged, no packages are in a funky state, all obsolete packages have been purged, etc. But ... Your use of sudo leads me to believe that you may be using a Debian derivative, such as Ubuntu, rather than native Debian. I cannot give you upgrade advice for anything other than native Debian. That's what I use, and that's what I know. Consult your distribution's documentation for the proper procedure to upgrade from one release to another. > > Do you know which packages has been upgraded at yout server? > Mine is a Parallels Virtuozzo VPS and the Debian image may not contain > some packages. My Debian s390x server has about 375 packages installed, give or take a few, the majority of which were updated in the upgrade from wheezy to jessie. It is not practical for me to list them all here. By the way, thank you for not top-posting. But it would also be helpful if you would try to limit the length of all your lines to less than 80 characters.
