I wish I could answer that. I'm a FreeBSD user, not Linux... I've never gotten terminfo to work, so I use termcap :) When you do a "make install" in the tn5250/linux directory, it _should_ install the terminfo stuff for you!

(0.15.7 is old) You could try http://cvs.cleveland.lug.net/module.pl?module=tn5250 to find 0.16.0pre2. or better yet, use CVS to get the current sources. http://cvs.cleveland.lug.net/mail-archives/tn5250/ A search of the list archives for "CVS checkout" should give you info on how to grab the current sources from CVS. I don't think updating to the current version will solve your current dilemna, but who knows?
