Blinowski) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: XFree312 doesn't restore text mode Date: 21 Dec 1995 11:30:20 GMT Organization: Warsaw University of Technology Lines: 23 Message-ID: <4bbggc$ndq@gemini.coi.pw.edu.pl> NNTP-Posting-Host: ogg.ii.pw.edu.pl Keywords: X, XFree 312, FreeBSD 2.1.0 X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2gjb PL2] Hi, Sorry if this is a FAQ, but: Recently I upgraded my FreeBSD 1.5.1. (!) & Xfree86 2 to FBSD 2.1.0/Xfree 3.12, all works fine except the X server which refuses to properly switch back to text mode, when killed, or when consoles are changed (ctrl-alt-Fn). When the consoles are switched the screen becomes blank, but the keyboard reacts ok. The vcard is quite standard Trident 8900cl, it worked find with XF 2. This is a quite nasty behaviour, since I have to reboot each time i exit X. Apart from this I find FreeBSD 2 a great OS, good work ! :-) -- +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ Grzegorz Blinowski <gjb@ii.pw.edu.pl> + Institute of Computer Science WWW http://ogg.ii.pw.edu.pl/~gjb --+ Warsaw University of Technology ---------------------+ Nowowiejska 15/19, 00-665 Warsaw, POLAND --------------------------+
