$TERM = "xterm" acting funny on non-linux terms
I recently synced up my Debian machine with the unstable tree on
ftp.debian.org. Now if I connect to my linux box inside a non-linux xterm
(non xterm-color, from a Sun machine, for example), all the text comes
out in reverse video, which makes reading mail, viewing anything with
"less", etc, kinda painful.
Things are ok if I do "export TERM=vt100", though, so I'm wondering if
the termcap default entry for "xterm" has been changed.
