I noticed a BUG in the solution descriped at FAQ 7.3.

As I edited my /etc/gettyttab (like it was descriped in the FAQ) and
loged in using ttypC2 I noticed that the the the buffer wont be deleted if
you do the followring.

Login at e.g. ttyC2,
Do something to get a full screen (so that you need page-up for scrolling)
- e.g. some "ls" (7x ls in my case)
logout using ctrl-d

You can STILL scroll up and see what was entered at this console.
I would say that's a "bug" because the buffer should be cleaned after I
logged out.

I found out that the buffer will be deleted if I switch to another console
and back to ttyC2.

I tested that on amd64 and i386 and I saw the same effects at both archs.
The FAQ dosn't mentioned that so I guess it's a bug but feel free to
advice me.

Kind regards,
Sebastian
