Hello,

... has just been committed. This should give instant scrollback 
support to any framebuffer console driver that uses vcons.
options WSDISPLAY_SCROLLSUPPORT
enables it and
options WSDISPLAY_SCROLLBACK_LINES=200
sets the buffer size to 200 extra lines per screen, the default is 100.
So far this has been tested only on sparc with the cgfourteen driver 
but it should work on any platform provided
- - the display driver uses vcons
- - the keymap has KS_Cmd_Scroll* keysyms. I added them to Sun and ADB 
maps, PS/2 already had them.

have fun
Michael
