This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156) --------------enigAB72F87406F1A555E24FD9FD Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Administering Linux Suse boxes makes it opf need to login onto those boxes and use the well designed kiddy-cloaking scripting environment, called YAST/YAST2. The problem I face now is that I can not use DEL key to delete characters or even use the ALT key to enforce actions like ALT-e or ALT-d for enabling/disabling. I tried to set environment variable "TERM =3D xterm" to "TERM =3D cons25= " since I thought this could be a problem with the terminal. But it wans't. Either the outdated X on FBSD causes problems or there is another issue. I desperately need some help ...
