Hi All,

While gnome works normally, my virtual terminals (CRTL-ALT F1-6) are showing up 
corrupt and unresponsive screens, display is inverted grey and coloured boxes 
(sometimes flashing bits)  which reminds me a lot of when my Sinclair ZX81 used 
to crash from a dodgy for/next loop in pacman (happened a lot).

When I switch to the VTs  looking like this, sound from mplayer inside gnome 
goes silent, but other tasks such as uploads/downloads/apache/logins go on 
normally.

On some VTs there looks like a cursor but although it responds to keystrokes it 
does respond as a normal VT prompt should.

Using CTRL-ALT-F7 does not resume the X11 terminal, however using ALT-RIGHT 
repeatedly seems to cycle through the messed up VTs, eventually reaching F7 and 
X11 resumes. 

Fresh install of 9001. Any ideas?
