i got the same issue, with redhat, tru64, solaris, aix, hpux etc..
what i do is just put a line in /etc/profile (assuming your using a BASH
compadible shell on the remote end) and put:
export TERM=vt100
that usually fixes it for me ..although the terminal i use may not
be fully gnome compliant ..i have no complaints about the emulation.
