Ah, my favorite question :-)
This is a really simple thing to fix. When you log in check your term
display like this:
$ echo $TERM (press enter here)
It will probably reply:
linux
This is the problem. To fix this with bash, type:
$ export TERM=vt100 (press enter here)
check your work:
$ echo $TERM (press enter here)
vt100
vi should behave now. BTW, the command to remove a shell variable is
unset.
