Haha, I found it myself! It's in the other ncurses package, and now
everything works! (Except I've put "TERM=linum-m" into ./.bash_profile, so
now even remote systems get it. Anywhere better? No, don't tell me....
ahah! I can set it in /etc/inittab - add linux-m to the end of all my
getty lines. Now it should pick up the correct terminal for remote
connections too!
Anywhere better this should be defined?
Thanks,
Tim.
