 =item The debvm-run console renders wrong.
 
-Get C<echo $LINES $COLUMNS> from an other terminal and run C<stty rows $LINES cols $COLUMNS> in the console or use ssh.
-Another option is to run C<eval $(resize)>, which is available from the B<xterm> package.
-Also set C<$TERM> to the outside value.
+Make sure C<$TERM> is set to a value known inside the VM.
+You may need to install B<ncurses-term> for more definitions.
+It also helps to run C<setterm --resize> after boot and when resizing the terminal emulator.
