Hello!

I have some problems with the termcap entries for cons25 and xterm.

With cons25 ncurses doesn't work correctly. Try to display an inverse string
with the following programm:
#include <ncurses.h>

int main()
{
  WINDOW *win;

  win = initscr();

  meta( win, TRUE );
  nodelay( win, FALSE );
  cbreak();
  keypad( win, TRUE );
  leaveok(win, FALSE);
  noecho();

  werase (win);
  wattron(win, A_REVERSE);

  mvwaddstr(win, 10, 10, "INVERSE    ");

  wrefresh( win );

  endwin ();

  return 0;
}
The string won't be displayed inverse.


If I start xterm, I get wrong sequenzes for the function keys. For F1 I get
ESC [11~. According the xterm termcap entry it should be ESC [OP. 

The explanation for the keymap entry in /etc/sysconfig is a little bit
unclear ("Choose keyboard map from /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/* ...").
How should I know, that I don't need to specify the extension .kbd?

If there is a simple solution, please tell me, how I can fix the inverse
and xterm bug (mabey it's only a problem :-), and I'am  posting to the wrong
mailing list ).

Thank you
     Jan
