Subject:   terminal printing 25l as cursor (includes dmesg)
Message-ID:  <20001025143502.A593@dingoblue.net.au>

I am having trouble using programs such as vim and mutt in a virtual
terminal.  The cursor is printed as 25h, 25l, etc unless I am in x. Some
system info:

$uname -a
FreeBSD sagan.tpn 5.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #2: Mon Oct 23 16:32:09 CST 2000     entropy@sagan.tpn:/usr/src/sys/compile/SAGAN_NEW  i386

I was having this problem in 4.1 stable previously.

$echo $TERM
xterm-color

$dmesg (looks like a new unrelated hdd error, ooh goodie) first this:
mmmm, several hundred lines of 
file: table is full

followed by several copies of the net 2 lines

ad0: READ command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting
ata0: resetting devices .. done

and then
ppp0: IPv6 not supported
ad0: READ command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting
ata0: resetting devices .. done
ad0: READ command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting
ata0: resetting devices .. done
ad0: READ command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting
ata0: resetting devices .. done

dmesg 2 (after reboot)
