This is usually due to a termcap problem. In which case(s) do you see the
problem (among the following)?
- in GUI mode (e.g. Alt-F2 then gvim)
- in console mode in a terminal displaying through X (and which one: xterm?
konsole? gnome-terminal? other[and which one]?)
- in the "pure text" linux console (hit Ctrl-Alt-Fn with n in the range
[1..6], log in if necessary, then invoke vim)
:set esckeys
may also help.
