That value is set to HPTERM if you are using X on HP machine and importing display on to your local X server [eXceed or local X for that matter]. When HP detects that the session is an Xsession, it would set the TERM to HP TERM. Now you have TERM=linux on your machine which is unknown to HP. Similarly you have hpterm on HP host which doesn't know what it means to have a linux term. Thankfully, both the machine know vt100. So what you can try is this. If you are TELNETing to HP machine, set your terminal to vt100 by using $export TERM=vt100 and then telnet to it. If you are doing an X[wrapper] -query HP.IP.Add.ress then you should have no problem anyway.
