Package: hurd
Version: 20021118-1
Severity: normal

I`m using the new console client with the following options:

console -d vga -d generic_speaker -d pc_kbd

In mutt and some other programs I have noticed that the console
display gets scrambled when I scroll a message list or some other
vertically ordered list: The scrollbar does not move up or down but
remains fixed in one line and the other lines get scrolled through
it. This alway happens in mutt when I scroll more than one line up or
down. It is possible to update the screen by doing Ctrl-L, but still,
this is, of course, annoying.

This sounds alot like you're using the Mach terminal, and Guillem cannot
reproduce this for me.

The latest Hurd package should setup most of the console stuff for you
correctly.  Make sure you include /dev/vcs at the end of your
console-client line.

Thanks!

Tks,
Jeff Bailey
