wsdisplay vs. SCROLLSUPPORT
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hello,
I ran into the following problem - scrollback status seems to be more
or less global instead of screen-specific. Just enable scrollback,
scroll back a little bit, then switch to another virtual console
without disabling scrollback and watch the ensuing confusion. For
instance scroll back on that screen as well, then switch back to the
previous one.
To deal with this in a sane way we should either
- - exit scrollback mode when switching away and turn off the resp.
keyboard LED
or
- - update the LED and scroll status strictly by virtual console, eg.
turn off the LED when entering a screen that's not in scrollback, turn
it on when entering one that is.
have fun
Michael
