I don't have this problem on FreeBSD, but then I don't have a new
enough AS/400 to use EDTF :)   SEU will switch to wide screen without 
a problem, though.

Have you tried grabbing the most recent version of tn5250?  I think we're
currently at 0.16.0pre2.  You should be able to find it at:

http://cvs.cleveland.lug.net

Be warned that the 0.16.x versions require glib to be installed and
working.  If this causes a problem for you, you might want to try 0.15.9
instead...

Are you suggesting that dumping core isn't the correct behavior? :-)
