https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D258764 Bug ID: 258764 Summary: Leaving X fails to return keyboard to console leading to an unusable machine Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: freebsd@chthonixia.net I asked about my experience via -questions here: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2021-September/294799= .html Here is the question as asked: =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D I run 12.2-release-p10 r370449 amd64 with an Nvidia Gforce 1050Ti. On Sept.26, I updated to the newest Nvidia driver. Ports were also updated on that day and more than once over the last month. What follows is a description of the state of things for about the last month. Startx works; Windowmaker works; as do all programs. As indicated in the Subject: line, exiting does not work. I initiate an exit, and after about or not more than ten seconds, an unusable black screen appears with a blinking cursor in the upper left corner. The keyboard and mouse are unusable; no switching to another tty and no ctrl-alt-delete. The desktop can only be rebooted by a warm reset or a power down. There is nothing relevant in Xorg.log: no errors nor warnings. Nothing in dmesg except the expected improper disk unmounting warning followed by fsck. I don't have the first clue what could be wrong nor do I have any idea how to begin troubleshooting. Given the paucity of information I can offer, can any advice be given to me? =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D The thread which follows should be informative; and it seems that at least = one other person has an identical experience; and perhaps more than one has a similar experience. As of this bug report, no one has offered a fix and I c= an't discover one. As indicated, I have not the first clue; this just started out of nowhere sometime in late August or early September after a ports update that I can't recall. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
