how to set up mouse in terminal window? when i click on midnight commander captions i get raw data from mouse printed as characters in terminal and any running progs don't understand mouses clicks. I didn't have a gpm package, so i'decided
$ps aux |grep -i gpm
user 3607 0.0 0.0 103244 912 pts/0 S+ 16:45 0:00 grep -i gpm
and i did yum install gpm
then
ps aux| grep gpm
root 3898 0.0 0.0 6732 568 ? Ss 16:56 0:00
/usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/input/mice -t exps2
user 3906 0.0 0.0 103244 888 pts/1 S+ 16:56 0:00 grep gpm
then i start mc and do try click... all is the same i see responses in command-line as "M P!M#P!M F!M#F! " like sequences note i have other Linux where no gpm installed and all rocks fine..:doh:
