I've determined that it is not with pine specifically. I startx under 'root'. the 'stty' rows and columns settings are correct for the three default windows that open automatically for me.
From one of these xterms, if I do an rlogin to another userid (eg. rlogin -l gomer gomer) and check 'stty -a', I've discovered that the rows and columns values are randomly (?) being set correctly or not. It is not consistant at all. When not set correctly:
speed 9600 baud; rows 0; columns 0; line = 0;
If I start 'pine' at this point, it will freeze and chew up CPU resources. After I do a kill -9 on the pine process, and check out the stty -a settings, the rows and columns values are set to 24 and 80 respectively (which is correct).
On the random chance when the stty rows and columns are set correctly upon rlogin, pine will not freeze.
Under 1.3.77, the same situation still exists.
Anyone have any clue what the hell is going on here?
gomer:~$ stty --version stty - GNU sh-utils 1.12
I'm still using libc.so.5.0.9 and gcc 2.7.0. Nervous about updating these still. :)
Greg.
