I also have SuSE 9 and have the same issue. I just found other ways
around it for now. (SuSE having more critical things broken)

Are you running vi from a console or in a console window from an X
desktop 
environment?

If it's happening in a console window ( e.g. konsole on the KDE
desktop),
check the terminal emulation settings (keyboard setting).

The various terminal types interpret the backspace key differently.

I think there's an environment variable too .... TERM or TERMCAP or
something 
like that ??!?!?!


Hope this helps - let us know,

Bob
