My best guess is that the terminal definitions on your system 
(terminfo/termcap) are not set up properly so curses doesn't know how to 
query the terminal size.

raw_display just assumes that the terminal uses a common escape sequence 
to query the terminal size, which works for most modern terminals.

So, you could either fix your terminfo/termcap (or TERM environment 
variable) or use raw_display if it is detecting the screen size properly.
