First, nitpicking. It's 'vi'.

Second, nitpicking (kinda). It's 'vim' not 'vi'. At least all the Linux
distros I know install vim with vi as a symlink to vim.

Ok, now to actually help. :) Start by copying the example vimrc to your
home directory. The path on my system is
/usr/local/share/vim/vim70/vimrc_example.vim, so for me it would be:

$ cp /usr/local/share/vim/vim70/vimrc_example.vim ~/.vimrc

That should take care of pretty much everything. Yell if that doesn't
fix it up for you.
