Buchanan" X-Sender: brian@smarter.than.nu To: current@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Terminal rows weirdness Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I think some possibly broken behavior with regard to handling terminal size information may have been introduced within the past month or so. Old (kernel and userland built Nov 12): screen size set to 80x30 in /etc/rc user logs in programs treat terminal as being 80x30 New (kernel and userland built today): screen size set to 80x30 in /etc/rc user logs in programs treat terminal as being 80x25 user executes 'vidcontrol VGA_80x30' programs treat terminal as being 80x30 Do I need to change something to be consistent with the new order of things to get the correct behavior back, or is this some brokenness which has crept in? -- Brian Buchanan brian@smarter.than.nu brian@CSUA.Berkeley.EDU "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin, 1759 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
