Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Linux: "make menuconf" creates a hardly useable interface
snip This happens to me when ssh'ing into various machines with a different console size. With screen in xfce-terminal I use F11 to maximise/resize the screen to force the screen to redraw correctly. Is this a common key map to the redraw function and does it work for you? BillK

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Linux: "make menuconf" creates a hardly useable interface
I am sure nconfig does the same thing as menuconfig and xconfig. Concerning your issue with menuconfig: Is this with a new kernel? Do older kernel versions still play well with menuconfig?
