After Upgrade to:

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial

OS Release: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 10.0.17134 Nicht zutreffend Build 17134

I've some strange behaviour when connection to other rhel7/sles boxes over ssh.

vi: cursor keys no longer working page up/down works without problem
vim: cursor keys working but page up/down not working

I could fix cursor keys in vi with : :set term=builtin_ansi, but this behaviour started after upgrade. :(. On local session vi works normal...

Thanks for any hints.

Remove export TERM=xterm-color from ~/.bash_profile from the remote machine and try again.

I'm gonna close this as a dupe of #139. If what @DarthSpock mentioned doesn't work, feel free to re-open it.

Hi DarthSpock, on Linux boxes (rhel7) cursor keys working after unset TERM. But PageUp/Down still not working. On AIX it mess up the whole terminal after unset TERM :-).
