>> [1995/01/22] kern/175      Syscons does not recover X graphics mode

No.  You just got tired of discussing how it worked like I mistakenly(?)
expected it to work for old versions (with NCONS=4 and gettys on all
consoles, Alt-Fn went back to X started on console n under 1.1.5 and
Xfree-old).

Now, with syscons (NCONS=default) or pcvt and gettys on 4 consoles,
Alt-Fn goes back to the text console n (it shows normal X error output),
and Alt-F5 clears the until the system is rebooted.  This is clearly
an X problem (XFree86-3.1-W32 ET4000/W32i).
