Subject: after firing up X - text screen dies
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

After I fire up X I can't Ctrl-Alt-F1 back to the text standard shell.
My screen just turns off.
Hitting Ctrl-Alt-F4 brings me back to X again - the screen slowly turns
on again
which shows that - I guess - Ctrl-Alt-F1 puts it into power saving
off-mode

I had this before - I uninstalled XFree86 and re-installed and it was
fixed.
This time that won't work.

I'm using version 3.4 FreeBSD with XFree 3.3.6 and KDE.

Also the graphics under KDE are exceptionally slow - don't know if that
is related.

Any ideas?
