I was asking if X has ever exited cleanly to console for you after logging out, and if it has, what you changed (particularly in your XFree86-Server version) between when it was working and when it wasn't. This is most likely just a failure of the driver to properly reset things for your card. Does disabling DRI in XF86Config help it exit cleanly? -- Eric Anholt http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/dri/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
