Tried removing /var/lib/ureadahead/*pack to force ureadahead reprofile to check the theory.
RESULTS: When ureadahead is reprofiling, the issue doesn't occur. I don't point at ureadahead in any way, it probably just plays a role in some sort of race condition. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067019 Title: Cannot switch VT [regression] Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I upgraded my machine to Quantal yesterday to capture the most bad stuff before the release. It works surprisingly well (well, the ugprade process quit two times because it couldn't configure some packages present in both amd64 and i386 variant, but nothing apt-get -f install couldn't easily fix) But I can't switch VTs, it simply doesn't do anything. in xev, only Key releases of XF86Switch_VT_[number] are reported and nothing happens. When I tried "sudo chvt 1", it just waits and never returns May it be related to plymouth being disabled and that weird "/bin/plymouth quit" showing in ps -A f ? (In Precise SLiM sometimes spawned on VT1 due to the vt switching black magic in ubuntu. With nasty results) Thanks for looking into it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1067019/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
