i have a problem with dialog. (The tool that displaysdialog boxes from shell scripts).
It looks fine when i start dialog inside of an xterm but it look ugly at the console (tty1,tty2..).
The white lines of the dialog windows at the upper and left side are missing. It looks fine with
SuSe 9.3.
I have tried to change the values of TERM, LANG and INPUTRC but without any success.


This is because of the UTF locale, just change your /etc/sysconfig/i18n to 
look something like this:

LANG="en_US"
SUPPORTED="en_US:en"
SYSFONT="lat0-sun16"
SYSFONTACM="iso15"
