TERM variable set to dtterm causing warning #8

Dave, awesome work you've done here! I just installed the RPM from your COPR repo and I am so pleased. Having played with the env for a bit, I notice the following behaviour:

[root@localhost ~]# less /var/log/messages
WARNING: terminal is not fully functional /var/log/messages (press RETURN) ...

After looking at the TERM variable:

[root@localhost ~]# echo $TERM dtterm

... and some google searching, I figured that the TERM variable should be xterm or vt100 or some such. But, I can't find where this variable is being set? I thought /usr/dt/bin/Xsession, but no dice.

Any ideas on where this is getting set?

Thanks, Michael G

Try:

sudo tic /usr/dt/config/dtterm.ti

This will add the dtterm definition to your terminfo database.
