Arrow keys don't work correctly. For example, if I do "make config" in a port then using the down arrow immediately exits the menu rather than moving the cursor. The same thing happens with sade. Note that I set one entry in /etc/ttys to xterm rather than using the vidcontrol trick. With cons25 it works correctly. I merely installed and booted a new kernel. Not sure whether I also need a new termcap. --- Gary Jennejohn
