How can I know what terminal or terminal emulator am I using?

You can run ps -u<your user name> -f and guess which of the programs listed is your terminal emulator (several of them end in "term") or echo $TERM might give a clue. Alternatively you can consult the documentation for your desktop ...

Doesn't vim support ctrl-v in xterm???

Works fine here. As does Ctrl+Shft+v.

What window manager/desktop environment are you using?
Maybe it's capturing Ctrl-keys for its own peruse?
