The reason I mentioned ssh is: if you start X under gdb from the console, the X server will switch away to a new virtual terminal while it initializes. Then, when it crashes, it will halt in gdb; but you won't be able to switch virtual terminals back to gdb, because X has put the vt into process mode, and is now halted under gdb so it can't run the code to release the vt back to the kernel. - ajax _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
