Maybe you are using an shell that mc cannot use as subshell?  mc supports 
bash, tcsh and zsh.  If your shell is not supported, but the screen saving 
is, then what you get is similar to what you describe.

You can try to set the SHELL variable to a supported shell when running 
mc, for example:

SHELL=/bin/bash mc

This is fixed in the current snapshot of mc.
