[Bug 367318] Re: in VT, screen not being saved (vcsa permission problem to blame)

[Shentino]

Stock upstream mc doesn't do this.  I have determiend the cause, permission
problems, and the attached patch solves the problem and at the least shows
exactly what the problem is.

I have had the exact same problem with Gentoo.  The solution there is the
same.

Fix the permissions of cons.saver to be sgid tty and all will be well.

I no longer run ubuntu, so I can't help any further with this bug.
