I don't see how this can help. It's not the 'screen' termcap/info
entry that are missing the resize codes, but your terminal emulator's
entries. Try 'echo $TERM' before you start screen.

(And your terminfo entry is wrong, it should probably read
WS=\E[8;%p1%d;%p2%dt'. If the codes are always the same we wouldn't
need two different commands...)

Cheers,
