Don't have any working enviroment, the problem isn't bound to one specific machine.
>Description:
I'm experiencing vi (and vim or elvis) to work weird on NetBSD, I'm using norwegian keyboard layout with norwegian keyboard, but vi acts like I have an english keyboard layout, not that characters like æ, ø and å isn't existing etc. but keys like tab are mized around on my keyboard, happens both outside and inside of an X-server enviroment.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install NetBSD 4.0-RELEASE i386 or amd64(these are the ports my computer can use), choose norwegian keyboard layout under the installation, and use a norwegian pc105 keyboard. Do simple editing with vi, vim or elvis, like entering insert mode etc.

 Norwegian)
