For some reason (probably a careless etc-update) ncurses based apps (e.g. mc and kernel make menuconfig) have started looking really ugly when displayed in a text console, but look fine in xterm and konsole. Rectangular frames are absent, columns don't line up, the wrong character disappears when I hit backspace, and so on, to the point of making the applications unusable.
Any ideas? Many thanks Robert -- Robert Persson "Don't use nuclear weapons to troubleshoot faults." (US Air Force Instruction 91-111, 1 Oct 1997) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
