I have memories of using the same application for the same purpose, two
decades ago, when on the first day at a new job, I was shocked to find a
M$ box on my desk. That was circumvented by lunchtime. Vi/Vim worked fine,
with no xterm scrolling issues.

What happens if you leave the linux environment and "ssh -Y" out of the
equation, and just edit a file in the xterm on the HP server?

That looks a lot like a Vim query of the current setting of "termcap".
