[nylug-talk] Yet Another Way for Solaris to Piss Me Off

At work, Im running screen under Terminal on a Mac to ssh into a bunch of 
servers, some Solaris and some Linux. The problem Im having is that while 
screen works great with Linux, the Solaris machines dont seem to have 
termcap (terminfo?) entries for GNU screen resulting in the usual garbled 
display and failure to handle screen's status line correctly.

Hell, the existing Solaris terminal entries dont seem to handle screen 
sessions where the terminal is wider than 150 columns.

Anyone know how to get Solaris to play nice with screen OR have a 
termcap/terminfo entry that is usable for Solaris 9?
