(Get the code!)
First it is very funny: Half a year just pointing at each other saying "There's the problem, not here!". :-(
@Thomas Dickey goes Second:
===[ cut here ]===
izzy@nebo:~$ echo $TERM
gnome
izzy@nebo:~$ mc
Unknown terminal: gnome
Check the TERM environment variable.
Also make sure that the terminal is defined in the terminfo database.
Alternatively, set the TERMCAP environment variable to the desired
termcap entry.
izzy@nebo:~$
===[ end quote ]===
So much about setting TERM=gnome - and here's your report.
Honestly: Does anybody at least know a work-around for this? It's pretty annoying... Shift-F1 to Shift-F4 are completely unusable - regardless whether one uses xterm or gnome terminal. Konsole also, even if it simply "eats" the keystrokes (without displaying anything).
