I just installed the X11R4 clients on our IBM RS/6000 machines.  Everything seems
fine except for the xterm.  When logging in on console, and starting X, the xterm
specified by my .xinitrc comes up just fine, but the terminal control seems really
messed up.  I do not get a normal CR/LF sequence after hitting return.  My term looks
something like as follows:

14:02:40 14 meibm2 ~/bin
>>> 
                       14:03:40 14 meibm2 ~/bin
                       >>>
             				      14:04:43 14 meibm2 ~/bin
				              >>>

These seperate prompts coming after hitting return.  This seems like a terminfo
problem.  So after getting a terminfo entry for xterm, and using tic to compile
it, my problems still remain.  (Note, that this is a true xterm, and not that
darn aixterm ibm invented.).  I'm sure that I am missing something probably pretty
obvious, but have torn myself up over this.

Any hints or suggestions?????
