Anybody out there using a GeForce 3 card under SuSE 7.2 and seeing the same problem. After going into an X-session and logging out, when I Ctrl-Alt-F1 to another terminal (graphical boot-up screen) it fails to display. Also, then fails to display this screen during shutdown. I have a laptop with a GeForce 2 GO card and using the older ver 1251 NVIDIA drivers it works fine. However when updating the drivers to ver 1541 it also showed the same symptom. I put the old driver back on to fix it. However using the older, or new driver with the GeForce 3 doesn't allow it to switch to a virtual terminal.

Same problem here with a GeForce2 MX, XFree86 4.1.0 and NVIDIA 1541 on SuSE 7.1. David A. Riggs

This is a known bug for the nVidia cards... nVidia is "looking into it", which they have been doing for the last 3 driver releases. What I noticed is that the display problem "went away" when I upgraded to KDE2.2.x... anyone else experience this?
