It comes with the rxvt-unicode sources in the doc/ directory; the file being: urxvt-8.2-256color.patch > Are you using the default terminfo for rxvt-unicode.

I did this, and exported TERMINFO to point to $HOME/.terminfo just to be sure -- running strace as screen starts, the terminfo file is indeed being read, But *still* I am only getting 88 colours. I've tried almost everything I can think of. Again, why this works flawlessly on my workstation at work, and not on my home machine is still intriguing me -- it's the same OS, the same packages; something is different, but I just don't know what. :) Thanks, -- Thomas Adam _______________________________________________ rxvt-unicode mailing list [email protected] http://lists.schmorp.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rxvt-unicode
