Hi -- 

I often use this line:

	xterm -title docsourc -e telnet `hostname` &

to log into my machine as docsourc.  The login sequence normally asks me to
set the DISPLAY.  Today (the first time since the 7.6 update) when I tried to
do this, it asked me for TERM = (vt100), the same question I get in dialup.
If I take that as a default, I later get a DISPLAY: Undefined variable error.

What changed?

Thanks,
Sharon Belville
