I'm a little confused as to the result you want.  You should set the terminal
type to wsvt25 for the wscons virtual terminals (ttyE?) in /etc/ttys if you
are using wscons (unless your kernel is compiled with WSEMUL_SUN).  Changing
the termcap entries chnages the capabilities as seen by curses/termcap-using
programs, not the way the terminals work.
