I have noticed that since the 7.1 release that the console does not seem to
scroll properly when logging in.  Now, whenever I log in, the console window
starts scrolling, but I never see the bottom two lines unless I force it to
scroll with the scroll bar.  Usually this only means that I don't see the
"session initialization completed" line, but today, a co-worker discovered that
msgchk was returning a message about mail waiting which he didn't see for
a few days because the console didn't scroll down to it.
