I have had some luck by setting the pseudo-tty entries to be a vt100
type window. If you get one where term is set to dumb, vi does not
work.
To change these, use "devices" and go 1 by 1, or edit the /etc/ports
file. There is an entry there for every port. After you change the
file, there is a good chance you have to re-boot.
(I personally use the "devices" command so that I don't get in trouble).
It seems once the prot is "told" you have a dumb terminal, changing
TERM or doing tset does not fix it. (!!)
Of course, if anybody else knows better, by all means let me know
what I have to do.
Good luck.
