root@Pinebox:~# nano .test
Error opening terminal: xterm-256color.

I ssh'd into my pineapple today after doing a factory restore, and started getting this error. Anybody gotten this before?

That's an issue with your terminal emulator, not the WiFi Pineapple.

Ahh okay, my mistake. Apparently gnome terminal 3.16.1 hates pineapples.

Guake works fine.

I get the same error most times when I use my Mac to SSH into the Pineapple. Just set your default terminal to xterm instead of xterm-256-color or set it in the environment variable of the Pineapple:

set TERM=xterm
