Are the files in /env present? You can do "echo `cat /env/TERM`" to see'em
(they don't have trailing newlines, so a simple "cat /env/TERM"'s output
gets overwritten by the following shell prompt). If not, does "echo -n
nansi > /env/TERM" change the behavior?

For now, if you've put anything mentioning TERM into your profile or other
login files, take it back out. It's best to get the system-wide default
working first, and then mess with per-user, and then per-session variants.
