Hello again. Has there been any progress with identifying the cause of
this issue and how to resolve it?
Both me (using PuTTY) and a friend (using ) only see blank spaces
where line drawing chars are supposed to be. This affects panels,
dropdown menus and popup boxes. Mode -a only covers the panels and
doesn't look as good as the original. I tried googling for an answer
but the few hits didn't help solve the problem.
