Sed,

thanks for your report!  I'll to reproduce the problem when I return
from my vacation in ten days.

This looks like a scheduling problem in Fiasco: An interrupt thread is 
still active while the Linux scheduling code is run.  This should not
happen because interrupt threads have a higher priority and never
block.  Interesting.

Maybe yes, but I'm not sure.

This doesn't work because hardware scrolling is disabled in L4Linux.
We did this because L4Linux shares the console's video memory with
Fiasco/L4 and potentially other L4 tasks.
