When you are on the Ubuntu server console, you will invariably run commands that scroll past too far to see them on the screen. Since you aren’t in X, there’s no scrollbar for you to use to look back.

Thankfully there’s an easy solution to this.

Scroll Backwards:

Shift + Page Up

Scroll Forwards:

Shift + Page Down

Pretty useful. I actually stumbled on this one by accident and thought it would be useful.
