Hi,

openSUSE Linux 11.4
Linux linux 2.6.37.6-24-default #1 SMP 2012-10-18 22:36:08 +0200 i686 i686
i386 GNU/Linux

# rpm -qa | grep termcap
termcap-2.0.8-1030.1.i586

Gnome xterm, Gnome term for development on localhost

Putty and/or Tectia ssh client (
http://www.ssh.com/index.php/products/tectia-ssh-client.html) for windows
clients.
mostly VT100 but I'm open to other options.
