Comment 2 for bug 1285864

I don't think there is anything in the standard install which would set TERM to eterm-color. Do you have personal initialization files which override the system TERM? How is Emacs connected to your display and keyboard (Unity, Gnome, bare Linux terminal ...?)

(Tempted to set this to status: "Incomplete" but not able to verify on Ubuntu 13.10 at the moment. If anybody with access to a Saucy image can chime in here, that would be appreciated.)
