It also does the same thing when I try to switch to a virtual terminal. There are no error messages that I can find. Even capturing the Xserver output does not reveal any clues. The box itself is not locked up. I can still telnet in and everything seems to be working fine, but to regain power on my monitor I am forced to hit ctrl-alt-del. This same machine works fine in Linux. Is there something that I am doing wrong? I have looked through the mailing list archives, and have found some messages that seem similar. I have followed the recommended advise in those messages to no avail. I would appreciate any help that the list can provide, and have included a list of my software and hardware.
