Slightly OT, but I'll give it a shot... I use screen for flicking between multiple terminals, but when I connect to a Sun box and run something like vi, I get this message:
> uname -a SunOS fubar 5.8 Generic_108528-23 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60 > vi foo screen: Unknown terminal type I don't know what kind of terminal you are on - all I have is 'screen'. [Using open mode] I think that the problem is that a TERM of type 'screen' isn't listed in /etc/termcap on the Sun box, but how do I solve it? Copy the terminfo from a Linux box up to the Sun box? Set TERM to something else when on the Sun box (and if so, to what?). I've tried googling, but I'm not getting anywhere - thanks for any hints... -- Sonia Hamilton -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
