[tlug] vi weird when I ssh to one machine



I can ssh to various cloud servers, and use vi no problems.

But when I ssh to a server which was set up as a desktop (Mint, Xfce),
vi is then weird. I get all sorts of escape sequences appear on every
keypress (from the point I press i to enter insert mode, I think). I am
then basically typing blind. I have to save, then re-open the file to
see if I typed what I thought I did.

I guess this is something in my bash profile (??) I need to
edit/add/delete, on the server? Or something to do with the way I set up
sshd_server?
