Hi: I'm running XFree86 4.3.0-78 against a Linux 2.4.21 based kernel. Whenever I attempt to switch back to VT1, or when I exit the server, the vga text console is corrupt. Generally, a 'setfont' will at least get me readable text but the background et. al. are still not the original settings. I'm using vgacon as my low-level vga driver.
I've been using vesa_drv for testing, but have also seen this with fglrx. I've seen it on two different ATI cards, have not tried another vendor. Putting a little debug in vesa.c seems to indicate that the right things are being attempted (VESAEnterVT, VESALeaveVT, etc. are being called), but I'm by no means an expert in the code so I'm not sure where I should really be looking. I've tried various google searches but haven't seen anything that exactly addresses my problem. I would appreciate any hints/pointers to help get to the bottom of this. thanks in advance Mark _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [email protected] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
