Package: util-linux
Version: 2.2.10f-5.1
When I logout from a virtual console I noticed
that it does not clear the screen so all the information
appears on screen before logout is still visible. It
certainly does not help keep privacy (image you just
lessed a secret file before logout...).
I suggest that the screen be cleared after logout.
I did the fresh installation (debian 2.2r0, default
kernel) on three machines, they all have this problem.
Please tell me what I can do to fix it and also,
I don't think it should be a 'out-of-box feature' by
default.
Thanks.
