Philipp, Please address all Cygwin-related mail to the appropriate Cygwin mailing list unless private mail was specifically requested. That way you get access to more expertise than any one person can provide, and your questions and answers to them are archived on the web, so that others can search for them.
For your convenience, I've redirected this reply to the main Cygwin list, and set the Reply-To header accordingly. More below.

Does this mean that solutions #1 and #2 aren't acceptable for you? Basically, copying the file "cygwin" from /usr/share/terminfo/c on your Windows/Cygwin machine to the same location on your Linux machine should cover most of the modern apps. For the older apps, you need to edit /etc/termcap on your Cygwin machine, copy the two lines starting with "cygwin:\", and paste them into the same location in /etc/termcap on your Linux machine. FWIW, I'm sure there's also a way to do this via some tools (e.g., tic or tack), but someone else will have to describe it.
