I have encountered another problem running Xorg-6.8.2 on a G4 Silver
with an NVIDIA GeForce2 MX card:

        Text is no longer visible when switching to a virtual terminal
        or after existing X.

Consider the following sequence:
* set up to use Xorg-6.8.2
* reboot for good measure
* system comes up, white text is visible on a black background
* startx
* switch to VT
        ==> solid black screen, no text visible
* exit X
        ==> solid black screen, no text visible

* blindly type "startx"
X comes up so key board works

* exit X
        ==> solid black screen, no text visible

* blindly type "reboot"
        ==> system reboots, text returns.

Looks like the video card is not being "reset", whatever that means.

Thoughts???
