Ok well I believe I did that already with ncurses but it didn't help. > Then build tmux.

It didn't make any difference. I'll wait until I hear your comments on the tmux info output I sent in the other reply. Or, if you or Dagobert have any other ideas what could be causing this. Especially I wonder if Dagobert tried his tmux build on Intel or SPARC or both. > I haven't used Solaris for a while but tmux definitely worked on Solaris > 8, 9 and 10 a couple of years ago and I have heard few other complaints > until now. I don't know, but looking over the mailing list archives there seem to be many difficulties with various versions of Solaris, and much hoop jumping and patching suggestions. 1.6 does build and run fine on Solaris SPARC. I really have no idea why there's a problem on Intel.
