I have installed OpenBSD on a Lenovo X390, and I am very happy with the
process so far. I would like to have terminal based programs like btop
display the correct box characters, and in my investigations so far, I
have seen a couple of comments:
- Change the terminal type from vt220 to pccon0 in /etc/ttys
- "You need to recompile the kernel"...
I have tried changing the terminal type, but it seems I need to do more
to achieve what I want as this didn't seem to work (after a reboot). The
FAQ gives instructions for VGA driven devices, but states that the
methods shared will not work with newer devices using the drm driver.
Where would I find official documentation which would help me understand
what I need to do to resolve this? I do understand that once I put a
window manager on the machine, I will have no issues in the graphical
terminal emulators used there but I feel this should be changeable for
the basic terminals as well.
Many thanks!
Paul
