[SATLUG] screen command loses colors

[Travis Miller]

Hey Eli,

I had this problem once... it was related to the TERM environment variable not 
being set correctly in the startup scripts.  You might want to try

export TERM=linux

or

export TERM=xterm

before starting screen.  Probably isn't the problem, but that is something more 
on the more obvious side you could try.
