Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

How to reproduce:

Start something that produces lots of output, e.g.

ls -laR /

While it is running, press <shift>+<pgup>. What happens is that it
scrolls up as fast and as far as it can, until it hits the beginning of
the scroll window. At least this is what the scrollbar suggests, the
actual content is no longer updated. In this state, press
<shift>+<pgdown>. Now the content is removed, you are left with a blank
window. If (after pressing <shift>+<pgup> or <shift>+<pgdown>) you press
any other key, e.g. <space>, the terminal immediately works correctly
again.

Scrolling with the mouse wheel has the same problem.
