Hi Volker,

Yes, physical USB Italian keyboard directly connected to my little HP
MicroServer G7 (or G8, no matter).

I'm using the default OmniOS Shell...after login:

echo $SHELL
/usr/bin/bash

echo $TERM
sun-color

They're default, never touched (as the /root/.profile file too).

I'm starting to have few suspects there is something wrong with these
"default" settings...Isn't it Volker?

Davide.
