Ok, I found the reason for the black bands - a stupid typo made it  
assume you use an 8x16 font but the kernel only contains an 8x8 one.  
Fixed that, should work with any font now.
No idea why the LT Pro in your PowerBook doesn't scroll though.

I made a new test kernel:
http://macallan.homeunix.org:6704/stuff/BSD/ 
netbsd_GENERIC_framebuffer_02.bz2

It contains a few bugfixes and the machfb driver will output some  
informations which will hopefully help me to figure out why your  
PowerBook doesn't scroll, so please try them and send me the dmesg  
output :)

have fun
Michael
