[Bug 235708] New: screen black after switching console
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=235708 Summary: screen black after switching console Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: m.munnix@redcross.be QAContact: qa@suse.de After switching console, some times the screen goes black and remains black even if switching to other consoles. The problem happened again several times in the past, but I don't know how to reproduce it. This time I was in graphical console (alt-F7), switched to text console (ctrl-alt-F1), gave a command switched back to graphical console (don't remember if ctrl-alt-F7 or alt-F7). The display went black (not in powersave: actualy grey, no contrast). Then I try switching back to a text console, to an other, push "shift", move the mouse, and back to graphical console ... with no success. The only trick that works : go to graphical console, press ctrl-alt-del (here nothing happens yet), then move the mouse (now screen comes up with "end session" screen + click on cancel button). Can't say if it is driver related or Xorg related. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
