my screen does have 25 lines, one being used by the system. therfore it 
does remain 24 lines for pine. right now it works perfectly, but this 
morning it did not. I am getting crazy...

I am calling a program called ethdrv to load the ethernet driver then I 
can type telnet myhost. Yes I do have 24 lines, so I feel the bug is 
hidden somewhere else. 

Thank you for your help anyway

Yves,

sorry, I didn't recall your first message, but do you use your telnet in a window? If so: Do 
you have a slider at one side for scrolling? I've had such a combination on a Sun and the 
slider interacted with PINE. In some sessions I had this problem. Now I'm using a window 
without a slider and all is well

Ciao,
