It seems like termcap entries are engraved in stone inside FreeBSD's code and cannot be modified in /etc/termcap >How-To-Repeat: Edit /etc/termcap Change any entry (say, for example xterm since it's the default) Apply the modifications using cap_mkdb cap_mkdb -f /usr/share/misc/termcap /etc/termcap
make sure /etc/ttys uses the entry you have modified Reboot See that the entry you modified has not changed. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
