Any ideas as to what that means? It means that the terminfo database that less uses to figure out how to control the cursor is not installed. It comes with the ncurses-base package that you can install from the Application Manager, if you have the maemo-hackers.org repository configured. Did you install the plain osso-xterm (version 0.13) or the maemo-hacker.org version (0.13.mh21bora1)? I strongly suggest the m-h.org one, as it is more featureful. Marius Gedminas -- Look!
