The most likely culprit is faulty terminfo or termcap definitions.

A useful piece of information would be for you to play around on vim on
Solaris, but not under screen, to see if there's a change in behavior.
If it still has problems (not necessarily the same ones), then it's an
issue with Solaris' terminfo description for your terminal type (what
_is_ your terminal, gnome-terminal?); otherwise, it's probably an issue
with the terminfo description for screen (assuming there is one).

When you ssh into Solaris, what does

  $ echo $TERM

give you, both inside, and outside, of screen?
