    Julie,

    What exactly do you mean by "can not use smit/smitty"?

    Do you see nothing?
       does everything else seem okay?
       what about vi - does it behave properly?
       make sure $TERM is set correctly
       (TERM=vt100; export TERM)

    Do you see lines that do not line up properly?
       make sure $TERM is set correctly
       (TERM=vt100; export TERM)

    Are you unable to used the Function keys?
       try ESC-3 instead of F3, ESC-0 instead of F10, etc.
