This answer is most likely the correct one. I am using 2.6 without framebuffer and cannot use (cannot see to be specific) the console after starting X until the machine is rebooted. Running 2.4 doesn't fix the problem. I will try this solution myself and report back if it succeeds. Jason -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
