"emacs" terminfo--shell-mode in emacs

[Daniel Choy Edelson]

I can't get shell-mode to work in emacs (18.56) on my rs6000 apparently
 because there is no terminfo entry for "emacs".  I looked around 
on some other machines and can find neither an "emacs" terminfo nor
termcap entry.  

Has anyone out there solved this problem yet?  If so, can you 
enlighten me?

Thanks.
