Hello. I noticed that after the last upgrade to gnome-terminal, my TERM variable is set to 'gnome'. The way it is, it causes all kind of trouble, when, for example, I ssh into another machine and get my TERM set to gnome too. Things then don't work correctly, vim doesn't highlight colors, arrow keys don't work, etc. I think that's because the remote machines do not understand this kind of terminal, and so fall back to 'dumb' or something like that. What's the problem with leaving TERM=xterm when under gnome-terminal? Isn't this a fine standard for all X terminals? Is there a gnome-terminal configuration somewhere that lets me set the TERM that I want? I'll have a look at gconf.
Well, that's it. -- Bruno Lustosa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.lustosa.net/ -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
