There seems to be some problem(s) with the 'linux' entry in the terminfo database. I recompiled minicom to use it (figured I'd get the ELF version out of the way) and now all of the dialogs are broken --- specifically, I get extraneous `1m` strings in unusual places.
This doesn't happen if I run it from rxvt or if I manually set the TERM variable to vt100 or some such. Also, I seem to be missing untic or infotocap or anything that would let me look at the entry, so I'm sort of at a loss to guess where the problem might lie. Mike. -- "I'm a dinosaur.
