OK, by apparently black magic, the vc problem seems to have gone
away..... I found a previous error - CHAR-MAJOR-10-135 something to do
with a Real Time Clock which I fixed and this also seemed to sort out
the vc thing.

Except(1): The ALSA problem still remains. I think I am just going to
completely reinstall ALSA from scratch.

Except(2): (more seriously) X won't start! I get:

Fatal server error:
xf86OpenConsole: VT_GETMODE failed

Any ideas what is causing this?!

Thanks

Dan
