Hi all, I am new to Linux but have more than 20 years on IBM Mainframes. I just want to say that I like BYOBU for ease of navigation between many screens I have open on multiple servers simultaneously. I have had BYOBU installed on Fedora 16 with screen. Worked great out of the box. I then installed BYOBU on Centos EL6 using YUM along with screen; but did not install tmux. I found Dustin's article about performing a 'export BYOBU_PREFIX'. That resolved some issues with my Centos. But now have the problem described here in buy #910187 'exec 163: tmux not found' on Centos. Running 'byobu-select-backend screen' did nothing. Actually, I don't believe it even executed after the prompt. But, importantly, I did run byobu-screen as Felim suggested in comment #6. That brought up BYOBU and screen. Then I hit F9 for the menu; selected 'Byobu currently does not launch at login (toggle on)', and it works fine so far without tmux. Have not rebooted yet.
