Hi guys, I am new to Freebsd (after years of linux) and, althought system installation and configuration was quite seamlessly, I've an issue with the delete key of my keyboard (101 keys us layout): In xterm, the backspace key works ok, but when I press del, it prints the "~" character, instead of deleting . I have read it has something to do with keyboard layout config, but I couldn't find out how to fix it. So, any ideas?

Thanks, (and forgive my poor english)

what does:

>echo $TERM

   give you?

It could possibly be the wrong terminal type --- try the following
at the CLI (depending on which shell)...

csh/tcsh:

   $setenv TERM xterm-color

sh/bash:

   #TERM=xterm-color
   #export TERM

HTH,
