Bug Description
Screen doesn't refresh properly when scrolling (see the attachment).
The behavior is seen on RHEL 4.8 and SLES 11, but not on RHEL 5.3. However, on RHEL5.3, scrolling is very sluggish. It seems to be a trade-off between quick movement and frequent / accurate refreshing.
Command line:
qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -drive file=/scratch/

Description of problem:
after for example catting a large file inside an xterm there are text artifacts remaining inside the xterm window. Scrolling up and down the xterm makes things even worse.
Not sure if it's related to window scaling, please reassign appropriately if not a virt-manager bug.
