I have found what appears to be a bug in versions 2.6.14 and following.
Currently I have verified it in 2.6.14 as well as 2.6.14.2. Here are the
items requested on the web site
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/lkml/reporting-bugs.html.
-------------------------
[1.] One line summary of the problem:
When the kernel option "vga=1" is used, additional tty's (alt+control+Fx
with x=2,3,4,5, etc) do not provide the full 50 lines of output. The first
one does have 50 lines, however.
[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
These addtitional tty's show only 39 lines plus the top pixel of the 40-th
line. The remaining lines are black and not shown. Kernel version
2.6.13.4 does not show this problem.
[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel):
Text mode only.
[4.] Kernel version (from /proc/version):
Linux version 2.6.14.2 (wayne@home) (gcc version 3.4.4) #1 Sat Nov 12
23:08:21 PST 2005
[5.] Output of Oops.. message (if applicable) with symbolic information
resolved (see Documentation/oops-tracing.txt)
No Oops occurred.
[6.] A small shell script or example program which triggers the
problem (if possible)
No trigger necessary. This happens upon system boot.
[7.] Environment: This is taken in tty mode, not from an xterm.
