I have discovered one other thing. If I use vidcontrol VESA_800x600 for
the console, the garbled screen does not happen when I exit X. This
would be great if I could figure out how to get the vidcontrol VESA to
support a resolution of 1024x768. Anyone got any pointers on this?
Thanks!

Subject: Xfree4.2.1+Nvidia+Inspiron 2650
I am having a problem with the setup in the subject upon exiting X to go
back to the console. When I exit, I end up with a garbled FAST rolling
screen. The only way out is a reboot, that I have been able to discover
thus far anyway. I thought I saw something about this somewhere, but my
googling has failed me. Some items to note:
1.) I have compiled agp support into the kernel
2.) I am running my console with the following vidcontrol settings:
vidcontrol -f 8x8 cp437-8x8
vidcontrol VGA_80x50
3.) TERM=cons50
4.) I recompiled the Xfree-server with the nv patches
(http://www.marcuscom.com/g2g-xfree86/article.html)
I thought the fix was to add some sort of delay when exiting X, but I
cant find any info on it.
ANY help is GREATLY appreciated!!
Thanks!
