| |
I have mentioned this weird behaviour under 2.4.3 as well.
if I use X for some time, I alwasy switch and forth between the (IMHO) idel CLI and sometimes switch back to the clumsy GUI.
now, what happens is that sometimes, after I switch from X back to a VC, the display gets black and stays that way.
the system works fine. I can still input everything I like etc but won't see anything.
it's on all non graphic consoles and I can't recover without rebooting.
anyone an idea ?
I am using X 4.02 (XFREE) on a riva TNT (viper 550); no special driver used, only the one that's supplied with X itself.
