Have you updated your ttys to set the terminal type to xterm instead of cons25? This is a fresh install. I do make a LiveCD using scripted tools. But it pretty much is a vanilla FreeBSD install with just some packages preinstalled (webserver, php, etc). The only relevant changes I think are a change to /etc/ttys. But when I revert the file back to the defaults, the problem stays. I thought that perhaps Virtualbox had something to do with it, but it seems to happen on a real system as well. Some of you asked for the environmental settings. Using 'env' the output begins with: -- on console -- TERM=cons25 SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash -- via SSH -- TERM=xterm SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash Via SSH the ee editor works as it should. On the console it is bugged. Regards, Jason
