            Bug ID: 211922
           Summary: Marked areas do not get cleared after they get
                    scrolled out of the buffer
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-RC1
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: blachste@b-tu.de

When using vt console in text mode, the marked area does not get cleared af=
ter
it scrolled out of the buffer.

How to reproduce:
0. % less somelargetextfile
1. Mark some area with the left mouse button.
2. Then press and hold the space bar to quickly scroll. You will see the ma=
rked
background color flash up regularly every time the console scroll buffer got
cycled through.
(Or build a kernel or such, you will see this flashing up regularly.

You can verify that by clearing the marked area with a single mouse click -
after that the repeated "flashing" of the former marking is gone.

I am very willing to assist with finding and fixing the problem. So, if you
need any details or more informations, just ask.
