No idea...
But related question, I do wonder if there's any text mode only display
managers. yes I know you can startx aftr login, but I do like how
display managers give you the F1-F6 TTY, something I can't, AFAIK and
correct me if I'm wrong, get with startx?
I'm not sure if downgrading lightdm would solv ethe issue? If you're on
Arch grab the downgrade package from the AUR. It may be available in
other distros, I honestly dunno if it is or not, and I orget how oyu
downgrade packages in Debian/Ubuntu or Fedora and no clue on Slackware stuff

Hello,
I use Debian in command mode. Until about a year ago, when I booted up,
lightdm would start in text mode and ask for user and password. It would then
start Mate with Orca. I could use the GUI by pressing Alt+F7. Then it suddenly
started setting the screen to not-text mode.
To be able to use the machine in my primary uses I had to disable lightdm.
This meant that I couldn't use Mate. I just switched to Windows for a GUI. How
can I configure lightdm to not put the screen in grap;hics mode and to again
ask for username and password in text mode where brltty can handle them. Then
start the GUI in tty7.
Thanks,
John
