Did you update the terminfo database on the remote machine? The rxvt-unicode and rxvt-unicode256 entries have changed, and the (default) rxvt-unicode-256colors entry is brand new. copy /usr/share/doc/rxvt-unicode/terminfo/rxvt-unicode.terminfo from your cygwin box over to the remote machine, and on that machine run: tic rxvt-unicode.terminfo Now, you have to be root to do that. If not, then you should create your own local terminfo db, by setting export TERMINFO=~/.terminfo (or something) then run tic rxvt-unicode.terminfo You might also want to populate your personal terminfo db on the remote machien with a copy of the current contents of the remote's global terminfo db first. -- Chuck -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
