Re: Problems with Redhat 8 in console window

[Myron Turner <turnermm shaw ca>]

It turns out that Redhat uses 4.5.5 not 4.6 for Redhat 8.  Also, the Redhat rpm 
of 4.5.5 in a putty telnet session doesn't give you lines around the mc 
windows, not even when you use what putty calls poor man's line drawing 
(plain ASCII dashed lines).  So, I am using both-- 4.6 for putty and Gnome 
and 4.55. for the console.
