Problem:

Using Rumba 8.1 UNIX Display trying to do anything returns straight away the error:

E437: terminal capability "cm" required

Resolution:

Some UNIX systems are not happy with the way Rumba 8.1 displays the terminal type in capital letters.  For example the default shows up as terminal ID: VT340 but even changing the terminal type to say VT220 it still displays VT as capital letters. Changing manually in the Terminal ID: field the VT into vt and the error goes away.
