Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
Whenever I attempt to switch away to a virtual terminal ( e.g. Ctrl-
Alt-F1 ) and then back to X ( Ctrl-Alt-F7 ), my system hangs displaying
a slightly garbled version of whatever X was previously displaying. When
this occurs, the machine doesn't respond to any keyboard input ( for
switching back to a vt, or restarting the machine ), and doesn't respond
to ping or ssh.
This behaviour also occurs when resuming from suspend or hibernate.
My setup is as follows:
- Dapper
- ATI Technologies Inc
R430 [Radeon X800 XL] (PCIe)
I have observed this behaviour using two kernels:
- 2.6.15-26-386
- 2.6.15-26-686
I have also reproduced this behaviour using both the 'ati' driver and
the 'fglrx' driver.
There are several bugs listed that seem similar, but none seem to be as
readily reproducible under these circumstances or situations.
Please let me know what I can do to provide more info. My apologies if
this is miscategorized.
