Hi. I first learned about tmux from OpenBSD. It is really great, thank you!

I am trying to get it working on Solaris 10 Intel and SPARC. I have the same
problem both places. I get a warning during the configure about a problem
with term.h:

tmux builds fine but when I use it the terminal sessions don't work (as in
various cursor movement keys like backspace go forward instead of backward)
until I manually enter 

export TERM=xterm

in each tmux window.

here is the output of infocmp xterm

Can anybody help with this please?

Also I have a request, I don't know if it is reasonable and in line with
tmux's mission or not. In OpenBSD not all the supported architectures have
multiple ttys, as you probably know. tmux is a hugh help because otherwise
we would be stuck with one console on those architectures. The other problem
is lack of a scrollback buffer. Can tmux provide a scrollback buffer or is
this really something that the terminal itself has to support? If tmux could
support that, it would be fantastic. 

Thank you.
