_____ hi Dave, Do you have an xorg.log under /var/log/ ? it would make debugging more easy if you port this. re, wh _____ From: David Sorkovsky [mailto:davidsorkov...@hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, 12 July 2012 10:02 PM To: 'xorg@lists.x.org' Subject: Video issue when exiting X... Hi all - I have an issue and I'm hoping someone knows the answer... Ubuntu Server 11.04 + xinit + new motherboad & cpu = problem I have had X working on my Ubuntu Server for quite a while previously, however I had to update the motherboard & cpu and that are slightly newer and now I have an issue... On the old system I ran "xinit" and on exit it dropped back to the command line perfectly! Now that the system has been updated, "xinit" still runs fine, but when I exit, the display goes blank and the console does not show... About all I can do is to SSH in and reboot the server. Early debugging... Only thing I see of note through SSH from another PC on the LAN is "ps -A" before start xinit has "tty1 ... getty" and after exiting has "tty1 ... login" and "tty1 ... bash". If I "sudo pkill login" I get back to "tty1 ... getty" but the screen is still blank! As an experiment I tried to relaunch "xinit" from the blank screen [typing blind] and via SSH "ps -A" I saw "tty1 ... xinit", etc, so it seems that the console was active, but the display was somehow still incorrectly set. Unfortunately, even though I'd re-started xinit, the screen remained blank - display mode seems to have somehow stuck in limbo??? Would be great to hear from anyone with ideas - Guessing something around the graphics mode that remains after X closes or the console resolution?! PS: New = Gigabyte - GA-H77M-D3H &Intel - BX80637I73770 Dave
