I have seen this reported on the Xfree86 lists and previously on here. Xfree86 (the binary) running at 100% yet the console is blacked out and unresponsice.
Running either startx or XFree86 with strace yields no obvious errors and Xfree86.log doesnt show anything untoward either. Putting in the no_accel option and the server starts Ok (albeit as slow as ?!$*). Kinda lost as what to do next. My XF86Config-4 hasnt changed since the last time I rebooted my Thinkpad 240 laptop although I notice the binaries did on April 14.
