So you run it from that console, right? Well, this isn't very reliable
from my experience -- it uses "native" terminal emulator, i.e. it
lacks many features of "normal" terminal like colors for example. And
'less' is broken in all cases, you have to use 'more' instead (yes,
even in toswin).

I don't use 'vi' very much but did you try to set terminal emulation
to 'tw100' instead of 'tw52' ? It behaves better from what I have
seen.

Are you sure about this? I can't imagine how XaAES would start if
mint.cnf is ignored :)
