Though black and white. Midnight Commander problem behavior is associated with a local console for DragonFly (given that in FreeBSD it works fine). First, install your favorite on * nix-systems of Midnight Commander. Very similar to Norton Commander in DOS and FAR in Windows. In this case, is a highly developed system. Put out a package that is already compiled image: pkg_radd mc This command is similar to the command "pkg_add-r mc" in FreeBSD, you have pull itself from the Internet files you need. Established quite quickly - say the same FreeBSD he pulls from a bunch of packages. On DragonFlyBSD immediately after installation is already installed a lot of packages and, perhaps, why the installer Midnight Commander is not so much downloaded from the Internet add-on packages. Established, but bummer, since: "Unknown terminal: cons25 Check the TERM environment variable Also make sure that the terminal is defined in the terminfo database. Alternatively, set the TERMCAP environment variable to the desired termcap entry. ". It's funny that when you install on a freshly installed (blank) FreeBSD is no such problem. When installing from source: cd / usr / pkgsrc / sysutils / mc bmake install clean Got the same problem - bad language on the terminal cons25, which is unknown. On the Internet I found nothing. Guess go with the s-lang at ncurses. Recompiled again without the s-lang, but with ncurses. Program started. And even the normally displays characters pseudographics. The truth does not work in this case, the closure panels on "Ctrl O" complains something about xterm and Linux. I did not like it. Dug that installing TERMINFO environment variable is set to / usr / pkg / share / terminfo normally run Midnight Commander compiled with s-lang without ncurses (ie default settings). Installed for all users in / etc / csh.login: Editing the file ee / etc / csh.login setenv TERMINFO / usr / pkg / share / terminfo and just in case you dare to use an alternative setenv TERMCAP / etc / termcap But the key combination "Ctrl O" panel still does not hide. Starting with the parameter-x, ie mc-x allows to hide the panel, but there is no sense from this - beneath them will still empty. I read that changing the shell csh, standing by default, to bash the problem it solves. Not tested. While it is doubtful - because on FreeBSD too csh by default. There is also the idea that the replacement driver for the console sc scoansi can help. Note: At another installation DragonFlyBSD (when compiling packages from source) terminfo file was not installed (I did not find it anywhere in the system). And make mc failed. But I did not deal with it. ---- Regards Przemysław Pawełczyk -- Przemysław Pawełczyk (P2O2) [pron. Pshemislav Paveltchick] http://pp.blast.pl, pp...@o2.pl
