How are you initializing the application? With the command "vi" or "vim"? It makes a difference.

I had that problem (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=424480&highlight=vim) before. You need to install the full version of vi. The vi command will now work. I think it links to vim.


sudo apt-get install vim-full
