>Description:
The patch included (also available at 
http://www.pao.lombardiacom.it/scroll) adds scroll support to pcdisplay,
ega, vga wscons drivers. The implementation is KVM based as the  FreeBSD
one. The key combination to scroll is CTRL-ALT-PGUP/PGDOWN.
The buffer size is hardcoded in the file src/sys/dev/ic/pcdisplayvar.h.
Additional work may be required once committed (ioctl for resizing buffer).
