The problem was a vimrc copied from a Windows machine to /usr/local/share/vim/vimrc containing this long statusline:
set statusline=%F%m%r%h%w\ [FORMAT=%{&ff}]\ [TYPE=%Y]\ [ASCII=\%03.3b]\ [HEX=\%02.2B]\ [POS=%04l,%04v][%p%%]\ [LEN=%L] set laststatus=2 Leonardo M.

Ramé <martinr...@yahoo.com> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sent: Saturday, July 4, 2009 12:17:48 PM Subject: X Terminals problem In my newly installed 7.2-STABLE, any X Terminal (xterm, xfce's Terminal, eterm,...) is working in the wrong way, specially while I use vim (v. 7.2.209) in text mode (gvim works ok), it can't scroll, when I try to move the cursor after the last line on the screen, the status bar shows that the position is changing, but the screen doesn't scrolls. Another issue is if I write a long line in the X terminal, instead of adding a LF at the end and continuing in the next line, it starts at the beginning of the same line.
