I have just installed my first gentoo server, and am using VI to edit
files. Here is the problem when I am in insert mode "i" and I press
the up arrow key and new line is inserted with the letter "A". When I
press the right arrow the letter "C" is inserted in a new line. By
pressing the down arrow key "B" is inserted in a new line, and finally
by pressing the left arrow key "D" is inserted on a new line. What's
amiss?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks-

Try emerging vim instead of vi. I'm sure someone out there knows how to
make standard vi understand the arrow keys, but vim does it out of the box.
Cheers,
