Terminfo is fine, is the console that should be configured to do so. Add this to /etc/profile (or user's equivalent): echo -ne \\033[1\;6] I think this kind of things should be included by default... but some seem to think that the configuration should be minimal...

A user with knowledge can change every configuration detail, but new users are forced to live with ugly colors, no dir in the bash promptm no support for LESSPIPE...) -- Nicolás Lichtmaier.- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
