I can confirm the issue. System freezes - or at least appears to when switching to tty1. Needs a hard reboot in that case I use Plasma5 with OpenGL 3.0 , generally the performance seems to get worse in the last few snapshots I have constantly microfreezes for a few seconds in nearly everything I do with the system.

Pressing CTRL-ALT-F# doesn't switch virtual console anymore. Nothing happens, although the cursor disappears, so under the hood it may have switched but the GUI doesn't switch.

could you say the number you are trying to switch to and if it does not work on 1 to 6? 1 to 6 work for me, 12 works since is dumps journal, others do not (though i have never tried them before) FYI, I have the very same problem with Nvidia. Also no switch (and it does not work nor with F1-F6 nor others. It simply seems getty does not run, did not check however.

I've tried a switch user and logged into the GUI as another user. Switching between graphical screens works. Only the textual console screens do not work (are not displayed, input appears to work). It worked before and I have specific X settings, which I'll check. Thanks for all the feedback. On 02-03-17 15:19, Patrick Shanahan wrote:

I also use the nvidia driver, 378.13, and the display has been this way for about 40 days for me.

Sorry, spoke too soon: the tearing is still there (crossing fingers for the lock ups). I had to reintroduce the xorg.conf configuration. Did narrow the CTRL-ALT-F# problem down to the "uxa" AccelMethod. Replacing this with "sna" fixes the problem. On 03-03-17 12:09, opensuse@maridonkers.info wrote:

Fixed...

Removed from /etc/default/grub:

i915.semaphores=1

Removed from /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/<myconfigfile>:

# https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/507324-Intel-integrated-Graphic-C...

Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "TearFree" "true" # Option "AccelMethod" "sna" Option "AccelMethod" "uxa" EndSection

Apparently there are no more screen tearing issues and lock ups (hopefully) with the new kernel and mesa (which previously required these fixes on my computer).

Now CTRL+ALT+F# work fine for both graphical and text consoles.
