Description abs 1999-11-23 04:41:42 UTC 
UPgraded 6.0 to 6.1 on Pentium.

I find that when dragging an rxvt scroll bar to bottom that it
bounces back to top; so, I can't find my cursor, which is off-
screen.

This is really painful to use; one needs to very carefully
position the scroll bar just above the bottom of its range.

Get newer rxvt rpm. I got 2.7.1 and it is OK (and with much nicer scrollbar).

the scrollbar behaviour won't change for 6.2, but probably will for 7.0.  In the
meantime, try using konsole (KDE terminal) or gnome-terminal.
