Hi, after digging around i've found some discussion about this, maybe
it's wothwhile to take a look into this patches

http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/20/452

i'm copying here what seems to be the cause of the issue:

"From: Jesse Barnes <[email protected]>

commit dc1336ff4fe08ae7cfe8301bfd7f0b2cfd31d20a upstream.

In the absence of kernel mode setting, many drivers disable IRQs across VT
switch.  The core DRM vblank code is missing a check for this case however;
even after IRQ disable, the vblank code will still have the vblank_enabled
flag set, so unless we track the fact that they're disabled at IRQ uninstall
time, when we VT switch back in we won't actually re-enable them, which means
any apps waiting on vblank before the switch will hang."


The upstream bug  seems to be
