Not fixed for me on kde 4.1.1

Platform:
kubuntu hardy i386 with NVIDIA Geoforce 2 MX/MX400 adapter and latest Nvidia
drivers.
KDE codebase:
kde 4.1.1 packages shipped through kubuntu repositories.

Window size, menubar, scrollbar do not seem to affect the incorrect rendering
on scrolling up.

BUG is serious: not only it affects scrolling up with the scrollbar, but also
scrolling up the text in text based applications. For instance:

less file.txt      (assuming txt is a long file)
read file scrolling down with PgDown or DownArrow
try scrolling up again with UpArrow
konsole viewarea is now garbled.

This means that konsole cannot be used for precious applications like less, vi,
etc. and one has to resort to xterm. I regard this as a showstopper. Please
consider rising the severity of the bug, since the command line in Unix is not
something that one can live without.

If this is a QT bug, please make sure that the info is passed to packagers with
a big warning on kde release notes, so - if available - they can ship an
updated QT4 with kde.
