The funny scrolling comes when you've done set term=vt100 and run vi,...
Vt100 uses <ESC>[#r (# a number) to set up something on VT100.  On sun
console <ESC>[#t set's screen scroll to jump # lines. To reset the console
do echo "<ESC>[1r".

More info can be found in Sun reference manual, section 4 ( atleast in
sunos 4).
