I noticed this too but it was followed by an upgrade to 228 which seems to fix it On Wed, Jul 25, 2007 at 02:11:18PM -0700, Chris Timmons wrote: Greetings, When I upgraded to x11/xterm-227, I noticed that "rows" and "columns" as reported to the terminal device by xterm were set to 0: system:/home/cwt/xterm-227> stty all speed 38400 baud; 0 rows; 0 columns; Terminal applications would not properly recognize the window size until I re-sized the window manuall. After doing some research I found this in the xterm-228 release notes: # amend changes to handshake in patch #226 to accommodate Solaris, which relies on the extra setting of the terminal size after I/O initialization. Do this by adding new resource ptySttySize, which is false for Linux and MacOS X, i.e., true for for Solaris and other SVR4 platforms, as well as FreeBSD (reports by David Wood, Renato Botelho). You may want to hold off on that 'portupgrade -a' that you know wasn't a good idea to begin with until the port is upgraded :) -Chris _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
