alsamixer unable to open ?after updates?

[Mike Jensen]

For some reason i have been unable to open alsamixer.  The module is installed 
and everything looks cool, but when i try to open alsamixer i get:
-(~:$)-> alsamixer 
Error opening terminal: xterm.

when i try to do it in init 2 i get the same thing but xterm turns to 'linux'

this one has been puzzling me.
Cheers,
Mike Jensen
