Hi!

I'm using the xfce4-terminal and GNU screen.
However since ... forever I have stuff in my .screenrc that made
it recently stopped when I switched to Debian and xfce's term:

defscrollback 5000
termcapinfo xterm|xterms|xs|rxvt ti@:te

xfce4's terminal settings reflect an xterm. rxvt and other
terminal emulators - when I press pageUP so scroll, simply go back
in my shell history.

Does anybody have a proper working config for me? Cold help a lot.

not sure I undestand, but

I use two methods shift-pageup and ctrl-x and then arrows keys, my magic
key is ctrl-x not ctrl-a

Well... when I do that I can scroll up, but just within he
xfce4-terminal, rxvt... buffer.
That means I leave screen's screen, where the current screen-window's
text is rolling.

If I understand you correctly, you want some way to easily scroll *inside* of
screen. AFAIK the easiest way to do this is to use the "copy" command, by
default 'ctrl-a ['. I guess that if you want to use pageup to scroll, you
could bind it using the appropriately named "bind" command in your .screenrc
file.
