What terminal emulator are you using?  It may be that, as was the case
with me when I was using aterm, I needed to use stty *and* needed to
change a configuration in the aterm makefile.  It's possible that stty
alone won't do it, but stty in combination with something else *will*.



        Sounds entirely rational.  Because here and with CTWM I have
        simple xterms; on my "new tao" runnning Gnome as a manager, I use
Konsole. Entrely to get the BEL in vi/nvi.
                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Are you getting audiable bell in vi/nvi when using xterm? I think I didn't get that last sentence.


I find that if I use Settings -> Keyboard and then select "FreeBSD Console", I come fairly close. Then [Backspace] backs up, but the characters are not erased as I space backways. UsingTerminal, it defaults to this.
Characters are not erased for me when I hit backspace in vi. In vim, they are.


        Anther indicator thata Garrett is right is that by doing an
"ssh -X tao", X gives me
X Error of failed request:  BadAccess (attempt to access private resource 
denied)
  Major opcode of failed request:  100 (X_ChangeKeyboardMapping)
  Serial number of failed request:  7
  Current serial number in output stream:  12
q3 20:06 <tao> [5032]

        If this gives annybody a clue, I'd be much obliged for some
        insights.  .....


Would you please try running "stty erase '^H' erase2 '^?'" in Konsole with default terminal settings and tell me how it behaves?
