GNU Screen provides its own scrollback mechanism - which the terminal programs don't know about.  Hence the vertical scrollbar is not usable in xterm, Konsole or gnome terminal.

Type "man screen" in the terminal and search for 'scrollback' for more information on this feature.

The only way to make the scrollbar work with GNU Screen, as far as I know, would be for Konsole to have specially written support for this.  I believe that gnome-terminal will gain this feature in the future.
