Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
How to reproduce:
Start something that produces lots of output, e.g.
ls -laR /
While it is running, press <shift>+<pgup>. What happens is that it scrolls up as fast and as far as it can, until it hits the beginning of the scroll window. At least this is what the scrollbar suggests, the actual content is no longer updated. In this state, press <shift>+<pgdown>. Now the content is removed, you are left with a blank window. If (after pressing <shift>+<pgup> or <shift>+<pgdown>) you press any other key, e.g. <space>, the terminal immediately works correctly again.
Scrolling with the mouse wheel has the same problem.
