  When switching to a different VT session, the ScrollBar is not
  reset. The scrollBar from the previous session remains and has
  the old cordinates for the history position. This causes the
  java exception.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code was modified to reset the screen and screen objects
  which also resets the ScrollBar.
  

Temporary fix
