Hi there! I have an RS6000 mod 320, 32 Meg memory, running level 3.1.5 of AIX. The problem I am having is with the command: aixterm -v This should invoke a terminal emulation window under X with a VT100 key code mapping. Under 3003, I could use kermit within a window of this type and get VT100 codes reaching the computer at the other end. (The numeric keypad was mapped to the VT100 function and PF keys.) Under 3005, the keypad produces the same characters in both aixterm and aixterm -v. (These are NOT VT100 codes, with the exception of the NUM LOCK key.) The documentation vaguely mentions that " Note: Keyboard map is needed for this mode". It does not say where to find such a map. (There are language specific keyboard maps in /usr/lpp/X11/defaults/xmodmap, however there is nothing for a VT100 keyboard.) Furthermore, it does not describe how to write such a map for the VT100 keyboard layout and finally such action should not be necessary for a command which claims to invoke VT emulation. I have contacted IBM software support with the usual time lag. I was wondering if anyone had encountered any difficulties with this and had a solution. Thanks in advance.

There is an APAR and an emergency fix for aixterm -v in 3005. it works fine for me. -- Benson I. Margulies
