Where did you include the cygcheck output? (If it's an attachment, it didn't make

A couple of things to check. What is the value of $TERM? You can check this either
doing an 'echo $TERM', or doing an 'infocmp'.
What are the first couple of lines of output from the 'infocmp' command?
(Mine looks like this:
# Reconstructed via infocmp from file: /usr/share/terminfo/c/cygwin
cygwin|ansi emulation for Cygwin,
It sounds like you either have a funky terminal type set, or your aren't finding
your terminfo database. 'infocmp' will help you determine that....
