How and why did you try to change smkx?  On my system, whether TERM is 
vt100, xterm or vt320, "tput smkx" outputs these characters:

$ tput smkx | od -tx1z

In the worst case, if you changed other things and can't seem to change 
them back, you could reinstall ncurses and other ncurses-* packages.
