I know this is probably a silly question, but I cannot use vi when I
am logged by dialup, and get following messages:

    no "li" capability for dialup.
    initscr failed.
    dialup: terminal type lacks necessary features.

I am a new hand in Unix system.  How shall I do for this problem?
Thanks for any help.
