Hello list,
I see that the kernel code to scroll the console has been stripped out [1].

do on my old laptop.

You mean 100%? Nope, all looks normal. I even tried to build elogind with
policykit USE, but with no luck. loginctl shows that session/seat is active all
the time.

Please explain what "this" is trying to accomplish, and we can tell
you how to do it in Python3. Are you trying to convert from Unicode to
Latin1 and back to Unicode?

If you have that line in your source code, make sure your editor is

Hi Alan,
Well, there's really not much that can't be done in a terminal

I suspect you are thinking of the line editor in the shell, e.g. readline.
