Terminal Changed in 9.0 or is a Midnight Commander Problem?

[overmind]

When I am in Midnight Commander and I run a command from within mc when I press Ctrl + O to see the output of the command under mc window, I see blank screen. To see the output of the command I must scroll up one screen.

Any idea how to fix that?

For me it works as always, compiled from ports with ncurses (system ncurses) instead of slang, I don't know if it makes some differences.

Do you use TERM=cons25? If so try enabling its emulation.
$ echo $TERM
$ vidcontrol -T cons25

I have:

# echo $TERM
xterm-256color

This has been covered in the questions list. In 9.0 the console defination changed from cons25 to xterm. Try changing your xterm-256color to just xterm. If you still have problem with mc submit a bug report to have mc fixed.
