Hi all,

If there is anybody on Fedora here, could you please try to evaluate the
code
from the original message starting from emacs -Q, and afterwards check what
is the value of

M-: (window-vscroll nil t)
>

Do you get 0 or 300?

For some reason this does not work here. I have just built emacs from `HEAD`
without using any `configure` flags. It does not work here, neither on
emacs 28.3, 29.1 or on the latest 30.5.

I have also tried on Ubuntu on another laptop, where the code works fine.
Would be great if possible.

Thanks!
