hello Problem is that no matter what TERM setting I use, and I've tried everyone listed in terminfo, I cannot get vi to operate correctly. The closest TERM value is 'sun' which will use the full screen idea ok but neither the cursor keys nor h/j/k/l will move about the page. Other TERMs produce rather worse responses.
I've also tried stty sane and looked at individual stty options, to no avail. I am connecting to 'potato' via telnet from a solaris box which I interact with via an OpenWindows xterm. I have also tried a vanilla telnet app. and get the same results. I am new to debian, having arrived here from Solaris via (a brief stop at) redhat. Not being able to edit files is a bit of a handicap at this early stage. Any help much appreciated. Thanks Rolf.
