Re: mc problem in recent versions of fedora/rhel

2015-04-07 Thread solarflow99
Thanks to Martin on the list, here is the solution:

It was actually the presence of $LANG that causes the problem.
When I unset the variable the problem is gone, this goes for both the
local and remote systems.  Fedora21 doesn't have LANG set, and if I
set it, it still doesn't show correctly.  It must be removed on the
other hosts, so nothing will have LANG set at all.  The remote hosts
i've tested this with is rhel6 and 7.  I should also mention LANG was
set to: en_US.UTF-8 on the remote
systems.  So this variable seems to cause a problem for mc.

 Since installing Fedora 21, using xterm I noticed the line and block
 characters don't display properly when sshing to another host.  It
 works fine on localhost though.  I files a bug about it in redhat
 bugzilla, but no one there bothered to look at it.  Has anyone else
 noticed this?

Hi,
I have seen this behaviour, if local LANG variable was xxx.UTF-8 and 
remote was xxx.ISO8859-2.
After you connect to remote machine, try to export your LANG variable to 
the same value as on your local machine, before you start mc.

I'm assuming this happens when you ssh into other box and then
run mc? Not when you do a shell link in mc from your box?

What does your $TERM var say when you ssh into the other box,
before you run mc?

Also, what does it look like when you sit down at the other box
and run mc?
