Are you using PuTTY? In PuTTY, there's an option under
Terminal->Features called "Disable switching to alternate terminal
screen". Try checking this box. Maybe other ssh clients have a similar option.
If you leave this box unchecked, when you enter an editor like vi, it
switches to an alternate screen (not a gnu-scren screen, but a
terminal screen) and when you exit vi, it switches back to the real
screen.
Try disabling that feature and see if that helps.
