I don't have a ~/.vimrc (nor made any customizations).
just /etc/vimrc
if v:lang =~ "utf8$" || v:lang =~ "UTF-8$"
   set fileencodings=utf-8,latin1
endif
set nocompatible        " Use Vim defaults (much better!)
set bs=2                " allow backspacing over everything in insert mode
"set ai                 " always set autoindenting on
"set backup             " keep a backup file
set viminfo='20,\"50    " read/write a .viminfo file, don't store more
                        " than 50 lines of registers
set history=50          " keep 50 lines of command line history
set ruler               " show the cursor position all the time
" Only do this part when compiled with support for autocommands
if has("autocmd")
  " In text files, always limit the width of text to 78 characters
  autocmd BufRead *.txt set tw=78
  " When editing a file, always jump to the last cursor position
  autocmd BufReadPost *
  \ if line("'\"") > 0 && line ("'\"") <= line("$") |
  \   exe "normal g'\"" |
  \ endif
endif
<snip>
if &term=="xterm"
     set t_Co=8
     set t_Sb=ESC[4%dm
     set t_Sf=ESC[3%dm
endif
I spent a lot of time previously pouring through all the vim configs,
mappings, etc. Looked up the codes for the arrow keys, made some
changes, etc.
Failed.
