vi acting funny on SPARC LDOMs

Hi,

I have a Solaris 10 VM and a Solaris 11 VM, on a SPARC T5-2 running Solaris 11.3.

If I open a file with vi, I can see the text, but the file text is on top of what was previously on my screen, in the console window. I can't edit any file because, when I edit say, line 37, it starts editing on line 32, and copies a random line from somewhere in the file. This prevents me from editing any files.

I've Googled to see if this is some sort of bug, but can't find anything.

I've shut down LDOMs, rebooted host to see if it was just glitchy, but that didn't do anything.

Howdy, Stranger!
