That does not sound like default behavior for Ubuntu, so you will probably
need to turn to BioLinux to get whatever support they provide.

P.S.: I had never heard of the described behavior, but a web search implied
it's the default behavior for Putty, a Windows SSH utility, and some
terminals in linux offer it as a feature that can be activated. SO if the
behavior you are describing occurs in a utility that appears in a terminal
window, then you might check whether 1) the settings for your terminal
program have been changed inadvertently or 2) the default terminal that
comes up in your distro has changed. Since you said you are running
BioLinux in a VMWare player under Windows 10, I suppose you may have
another two layers of complexity to explore.
