Hello all,
   I have XWindows running on OpenBSD 3.4. As soon as I type any
command in XTerm, I get the following error: 'tset: can't initialise
terminal type XXX (error -1)', where XXX is whatever command I invoke.
Here is the equipment I have:

PentiumII-266MHz
196MB RAM
Matrox Millenium 2064w video card
NEC keyboard and MS Intellimouse, both connected to an ATEN KVM switch

In xf86config I specified wsmouse for the mouse and generic keyboard for
the keyboard.

Any ideas on what is happening? For what it's worth, the mouse and
keyboard seem to work fine otherwise.
