--- Comment #2 from Stefan B. <sblachmann@gmail.com> ---
I also confirm that bug.

CAUSE:
The setvideomode stuff is unnecessarily called.
Highly annoying, because mode gets reset, with sync stopping, monitor blank=
ing
and taking some time to lock in its PLL again.
One reason why I use sc.

HOW TO FIX:
When changing from one vt to another, do NOT do an unnecessary call to
setvideomode BIOS function. This is ONLY necessary when switching between X=
 and
vts.
Just blit the framebuffer with the contents of the newly selected VT.
