I came across this thread while trying to find a solution to what appears to be the same problem. Specifically, trying to run 'BitchX' in screen, although the particular instance of 'screen' is running on a remote shell.
basically, I am SSHing, via gnome terminal, from my Fedora box to a remote system, and running screen. Within screen, I am trying to run BitchX. Unfortunately, as the parent message in this thread indicates, BitchX gets terribly garbled. A sample screenshot can be seen here:

Note that this happens on a variety of different remote systems that I have tried, and only began to happen once I started using fedora, so I am fairly sure it will be an issue I will have to resolve on my end.
In any case, using the recommendation Rick Stevens made above, in a variety of difference permutations (i.e., changing the LANG env on my local shell, on the remote shell before running screen, and on the remote screen session before running BitchX, as well as any combination therein), I was unsuccessful in resolving this issue. Does anyone else have any recommendations as how to fix this?
Thanks in advance, Corey.
