I had a similar problem on my box which was a 7.2 install upgraded to RH8.0. The problem ended up being cause by an old hack in my .bashrc file. A few releases back (don't remember when) man was broken out of the box on xterms. You had to set 'LESSCHARDEF=.' in one of your startup files to fix the problem. Well, in 8.0, that hack causes the new man to add a lot of garbage to it's output. Once I commented out that line in my .bashrc, man worked flawlessly. -- Steve Borho Voice: 508-305-7223 Member of Technical Staff email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Celox Networks Inc http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1925.txt -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
