Hi guys, quick (and hopefully easy) question about running
emacs on the next.  I am using 1.0 (for now) and am having trouble
starting up a shell.  I get a prompt, but also the warning:

  Incomplete termcap entry.  Editing disabled.

and some garbage on my window.  So, of course, I can't use any full 
screen applications.   I know a little about termcap,
but not much, and I know for sure I haven't done anything
to it, and nor would anyone else using this machine.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

David
