Try shift+pageup/pagedown. If this fails, try a different gtk terminal
such as xfce4-terminal.

shift+pagep/pagedown doesnt work either.
xfce is a desktop environment similar to gnome or kde, right?
I do not have any desktop environment (running R on a server), can I
still try xfce?

Thanks

Yes, with less dependencies and less hungry on resources. 

 I do not have any desktop environment (running R on a server), can I
 still try xfce?
 
I am not very sure. If you are running gnome-terminal, I assume that
you have a running X session and some sort of graphical environment. If
this is so, installing and running xfce4-terminal should be
straightforward (on Debian/Ubuntu [1] use apt-get) since it requires
very few Xfce dependencies.

yes, I use X forwarding over ssh, but when I use GNU screen X forwarding
doesn't work anymore (I suppose it is another questions).

thanks again,
