Re: Midnight Commander (mc) problem on RedHat 8

[Rick Lapp <rlapp optonline net>]

In my install on RH 8.0, I changed the terminal fonts to Lucida Console and 
was able to get rid of the characters.  Very clean looking font.  Try 
different fonts, some will work some won't.  This problem seems to be 
inherent to RH.  Mandrake on same machine here is no problem.
