I never noticed this, it seems like the following workaround works in
the shortterm (colors may be a bit different though).

 TERM=linux vim [some file]

vim checks $TERM and does some things differently if it thinks it's run
from within an xterm or derivate like rxvt which is what madtty/dvtm
emulates.

What do you mean by this? A blank screen after you have quit dvtm?
