>Originator:     Heikki Suonsivu
>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2-CURRENT i386
>Organization:
Clinet, Espoo, Finland
>Environment:

	Various versions of -current from several past months (may be
	for the duration of existence of FreeBSD 2).

>Description:

	tty rows and columns settings are reported to be zeroed sometimes.
	the programs under which this is seen may be emacs, elm, or tin.
	I haven't seen this personally, but according to one of our users
	it happens sometimes.  It also seems that it never happens twice
	during same connection, if the values are manually set to correct
	values they stick.

>How-To-Repeat:

	A user says it happens when reading mail, or using tin to read
	news.  Usually this involves editing something and then going back
	to tin/elm and when trying to edit the next mail the values have
	been reset.

>Fix:
	
	Could this be something in curses library?  tin and elm probably
	both use curses.
