Package: xserver-common Version: 4.3.0-7 Severity: important Ok, here's the deal. A few weeks ago, I rebooted my machine and, for some reason, X loaded up on VT #2. I thought it odd, but was able to change VTs. After another reboot a week or so later, X was back on VT #7, but then I could not change to another VT using the CTRL-ALT-+ or - hotkeys. I also could not change resolutions. I ran xev and spied on the keycode mappings, and sure enough, they were correct for both sets of key combinations. So at this point, I'm assuming it's some stupid gnome settings daemon or something similar. So I loaded up X as root, same issue. I created a blank .xinitrc, without even loading a WM, same issue. I can, however, change resolutions using xrandr and I can change VT's using chvt, but these are not good solutions, imo. One other thing I noticed: when I attempt to play a game, say, quake3, and I specify that it should be full-screen, it goes full screen but flickers horribly. And one more clue: if I change resolution to something lower than my standard (1600x1200), I cannot page the virtual screen size around using the mouse. I obviously feel that all of these issues are related, but I've got no idea what could be causing this.
