Using IPythyon 6.2.1 and LXterminal I can not scroll back using mousewheel or shift+pgup.

Is it possible that you've enabled mouse_support in IPython's config? Scrolling is working in gnome-terminal for me.

I have
c.TerminalInteractiveShell.mouse_support = False

It's really only in LXTerminal. In the normal xterm everything works perfectly as expected, scrolling normally.

I'm inclined to say it's a bug in LXterminal until proven otherwise, since it's working in a wide variety of other terminal emulators.

cc @jonathanslenders - is prompt_toolkit doing anything that might cause problems with scrolling in the terminal?

I am having the same issue with LXterminal, although it has started only recently and worked fine for years before.

It finds eventually the history but it first cycles through ~/.ipython/profile_default/history.sqlite and has to be exited and reentered for the new commands to be found in the history. Terminator terminal works fine.

I'm seeing this in IPython 8.6.0 using iTerm 2 as well. Doesn't seem related to the terminal used as I was just able to reproduce it in Terminal.app too.

This was the prompt-toolkit issue: #13834
