What I am saying apply also to the official ikd patch. If I am on the
shell and I press return for a while, then the box scroll up. Then the
faster way to redisplay the box again is to change the virtual console
with ALT-F2... If you don' t touch the keyboard the box remain in the same
position as well though.
