I am having a problem with shuttind down the SVGA X-server under 2.0-950210-SNAP in that if you have output which has not been posted to the ASCII screen before the X-server stops (that is, if you haven't switched back to the VT that needs the output), then you never really get back. Sometimes the display stops with just the basket-weave background, sometimes it switches back to the ASCII screen but never finishes the output, but in all cases, any attempt to use the VT switching just beeps at you. The system is otherwise OK, since I can rlogin or telnet into it and do other things, and by doing so I have confirmed that the X-server is not running, which points to a syscons problem, perhaps.
