OS X Lion: Error opening terminal: xterm-256color
OS X Lion > Terminal.app > Error opening terminal: xterm-256color
I encountered this error when issuing the commands:
- ssh
- pico
- nano
There might be other commands affected by this error.
A quick Google search shows that the problem lies within /usr/share/terminfo/ folder. The answers that solved my problem is:

I replaced the “terminfo” folder from OS X Lion installer but the problem persisted. So I downloaded it from the link provided in the Apple Discussions Board. It solved the problem.
Weird backlighting pattern on MacBook Pro screen.
I wonder why the MacBook Pro screen shows a weird backlighting pattern.
After a while the backlighting becomes normal.
It’s Alive!
I had been keeping a MacBook Pro with a faulty Logic Board for a while now. I kept it because it had a perfectly working LCD screen. A few days ago my colleague told me that he was getting rid off a MacBook Pro which had a broken screen, dead battery and some other problems. I told him that I would like to harvest the working parts. So I spent a few hours combining parts from the two MacBook Pros.
What I need to get for this MacBook Pro are new battery, 4 GB of RAM and new hard drive; the currently installed 80 GB hard drive is not enough. Perhaps I should install an SSD. I’ll figure it out tomorrow. For now I installed OS X Lion on this MacBook Pro. I was having a little trouble installing OS X. I am saving that for another post.
With this kind of download speed…
Dear Verizon,
As of today you are the only Internet provider in this particular area, yet you’re only offering a sub-standard DSL service. The contract says that it is a “high speed Internet” up to 1 Mbps downstream. So what cause the downstream speed to be so abysmal? A 64 Kbps is far from 1 Mbps. Well, at least you’re sending some technician to come on Friday.

Yes it is A Different Kind Of Truth.
Van Halen is back with David Lee Roth sans Michael Anthony; Wolfgang Van Halen (Eddie’s son) is taking the bass duty. New album titled “A Different Kind Of Truth” is scheduled for February 7th, 2012 release while its first single “Tattoo” goes on sale on January 10th, 2012 on iTunes and January 14th, everywhere else such as Amazon MP3.
Blabbermouth.net user GhostofPerdition pointed out that “A Different Kind Of Truth” cover art looks like a rip-off of The Commodores “Movin’ On”.
Cannot unsee!
