PLease be more specific. I just set TERM=xterm in my /etc/profile. I got an error message before so i had to do it. What's my better option?
you should set the value via the 'termName' X resource (xterm*termName: xterm-256color, in ~/.Xdefaults)
It is best to leave the term value at the default the terminal uses. If that is a problem (i.e. in the case of xterm/xterm-color), you should set the value via the 'termName' X resource (xterm*termName: xterm-256color, in ~/.Xdefaults)
