Nevermind, I found the solution VIA list archives. For anyone interested the release notes provided the solution. The solution is to add the line LANG=C in the .bash_profile for the user to change the display. Man started working correctly after logging back on. I wonder why they would make such a change if the man program doesn't work correctly out of the box. This was a fresh new install.

From RH8 the man pages display correctly on its terminal. However, when I log in from SSH its format doesn't work quite right. I get â's all over the place. None of the previous versions have this problem and it only shows up on man pages. I don't know if it is related but emacs backspace doesn't work as it has on previous versions. I have to use delete instead. Larry S. Brown Dimension Networks, Inc.
