Re: dselect and vi

First of all, thank you for your concern. I don't have apt installed apparently. I am running slink. I am convinced it has something to do with my screen and/or keyboard setup because this happens in both dselect and vi. I am telneting to my machine, so maybe I should hook a monitor to see if it is just some problem with the telnet output configuration. But do you know where the screen settings are offhand? I never knew there were any since I thought it was all just standard, but apparently there is. Once again thank you and I hope this info helps help at all. :)

Well, don't know how much help I'll be, but a few questions might be in
order...

What version of Debian are you running?

Do you have Apt installed?

If so, what is the output of 'apt-get check'?

Also, what version of vi do you have installed?

We ought to be able to come up with something.  It's just a matter
of figuring out which questions to ask :)

Hmmm.. is my sig trying to tell me something?
