RE: Making my vt320 useful



Is your TERM variable set to vt320?  There are also a bunch of wyse
types.  See /usr/lib/terminfo/v/* and /usr/lib/terminfo/w/*. (or
/usr/share/terminfo/...)

On other systems there is a file in /etc/ that specifies what kind
of terminal is on which serial line (gettydefs or ttytype or something
like that).  I don't see it on my system.  I have the stock getty
and it might take one of the other getty packages to have that file...
