Subject: ncurses on a embeded RTL8186 Linux system


Dear developer/mantainer

I am trying to install ncurses on a 2Mega FlashRom and 16 Mbytes RAM MIPS' 
system.

I managed to compile and boot the device and I'd like to run some ncurses 
dependent applications.

The status up to the moment is:
1- I cross-compilled ncurses 5.0 and installed in the box;

2- there is a very small set of libc installed with some missing functions I
had to write myself (no big deal);

3- I tried to run test/bs and test/blue (i had a very limited space on the 
box's ramdisk) and got some output on screen (completely misaligned) when
I use ansi terminal (any other terminal type segfaults the application);

I also tried ncurses 5.5 and got only segfaults no mater what terminal.

Can you help me on debugging this situation?

Best Regards
