Subject: xorg: ctrl+alt+Fx doesn't work anymore (on an old install) Package: xorg Version: 1:7.3+10 Severity: important
Hello, I suspect this bug is the same as 445100 and 484294, but it seems the confusion around the cause is too big, so, although my gut tells me this is the same bug, I am adding this as a separate BR, as suggested in one of the ones above. ctrl+alt+Fx used to work until about a month ago or so, but now it is broken. I can't even switch via keyboard to another user's session, ecept through GNOME's menu. About my setup: - I am using xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd from sid; I used to have fglrx, but I gave it up in favour of radeonhd, and, although I still have the fglrx-driver package installed, I don't have the kernel module - I have caps and ctrl switched for my user, while my wife's account doesn't have the switch --- ctrl+alt+Fx doesn't work for either of us, no matter the log in order I will tr to remove any trace of the fglrx driver, although I really don't suspect fglrx being the culprit ... (about this issue). Please ask about any information you might need. P.S.:I think serious would have been appropriate, taking into account that: this is a regression, access to text consoles is lost entirely, upgrading xorg shouldn't prevent the proper usage of the computer; still I'll leave this as important, just to avoid severity wars and to hope for a fast fix. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (10, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.2-bounty (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ro_RO.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ro_RO.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xorg depends on: ii gnome-terminal [x-termin 2.22.2-1 The GNOME 2 terminal emulator appl ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 7.0.3-1 A free implementation of the OpenG ii libglu1-mesa 7.0.3-1 The OpenGL utility library (GLU) ii rxvt-unicode [x-terminal 9.02-1+b1 RXVT-like terminal emulator with U ii tilda [x-terminal-emulat 0.09.5-1~local0 terminal emulator with first perso ii x11-apps 7.3+1 X applications ii x11-session-utils 7.3+1 X session utilities ii x11-utils 7.3+2 X11 utilities ii x11-xfs-utils 7.3+1 X font server utilities ii x11-xkb-utils 7.4+1 X11 XKB utilities ii x11-xserver-utils 7.3+2 X server utilities ii xauth 1:1.0.3-1 X authentication utility ii xfonts-100dpi 1:1.0.0-4 100 dpi fonts for X ii xfonts-75dpi 1:1.0.0-4 75 dpi fonts for X ii xfonts-base 1:1.0.0-5 standard fonts for X ii xfonts-scalable 1:1.0.0-6 scalable fonts for X ii xfonts-utils 1:7.4+1 X Window System font utility progr ii xinit 1.0.9-2 X server initialisation tool ii xkb-data 1.3-1 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii xserver-xorg 1:7.3+10 the X.Org X server Versions of packages xorg recommends: ii xorg-docs 1:1.4-2 Miscellaneous documentation for th -- no debconf information -- Regards, EddyP ============================================= "Imagination is more important than knowledge" A.Einstein -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
