I posted about this last week and got no response so I will try a shorter version.
I have upgraded 3 systems to sarge from woody. All 3 systems exhibit the same behavior when running dselect either over the network or via serial console. dselect starts normally but when I select 2 for software selection, the screen fills with w's or p's wherever white space should be. If I capture the output as in tee dselect outputfile I get the rain of w's both on screen and in the output file. After this starts, it continues until I get out of dselect although parts of it do display correctly such as the progress messages when loading software. Other full-screen applications work normally. Only dselect seems to be effected. The corruption sometimes fills the screen with p's for white space but mostly w's. Any ideas? Thank you for your help.
