Yes, I have just done a new trial, it is a reproducible case. If the pasted string contains an accent, X crashes. I think your piont is what a searched, a good repro scenario. Should I open a bug in X? What component? >> Ih this log, several things make me surprised: >> - the log is polluted by (EE) related to offsetting. What is this?

Before script: http://paste.debian.net/1037969 After the script: http://paste.debian.net/1037970 After alt-ctrl-f1 then alt-f7 (black screen): http://paste.debian.net/1037971 Note that when screen is black, when I re-run the script, the screen becomes lighted immediately. > >> - should I report a bug and where?

It would be easier than explaining the situation related to brltty. We will need to do, but with a program it will me more understandable for upstream. Regards, > Samuel > >
