Pete Does Alt-backspace work for anyone in an xterm (deleting the previous
Pete word on bash input, for example)? This worked fine in Bo and before.

system where all the bad things go away and nice surprises show up

After some experimentation, I found that the following works if you add it
to /etc/X11/Xresources:
*VT100.Translations: #override KeyBackSpace: string(\177)\n\
MetaKeyBackSpace: string(\033\177)\n\

Didn't produce any change for me.

Just to followup on my own message, it's probably not a bug in xterm
because bo's xterm binary misbehaves identically when copied to slink.

Make sure the following is present in your /etc/X11/Xresources:

I think I had this same problem and solved it after someone in IRC
