I don't actually know why home/end would work on some systems and not
others, but if you get in the habit of using CTRL-a and CTRL-e instead,
I _think_ that should work consistently.
I suppose you could be clever and keymap home and end to CTRL-a and
CTRL-e if you wanted, but I don't know the details, and that might be
annoying if you try to use home and end in other contexts.
Cheers!
