I'm running cesspit to update my machine to 4.4 stable. While cesspit was running on the first screen I Alt-F2'ed to the 2nd screen to enter a few commands and check something. When I went back to Alt-F1 (first screen) where cesspit is running, there is a console message that I logged in on ttyv1 overtop of the display for cesspit. The cesspit status is still scrolling "under" the console message. The problem is that the console message is right at the bottom 2 lines where the cesspit status and messages are scrolling from. This means that I can't see the current status because it is covered up by the console message. Is there anyway to clear that console message so I can see the current status of cesspit under it? The cesspit screen is a "pretty" formatted text screen like those in the /stand/sysinstall utility. Thanks, Cla.
