hello
there is a problem having todo with the console (syscons), X and monitores
which are detected as VGA-Mono at bootup (is there anybody else using such
things ? :-) - i verified the problem over 2 different monitores and 3
different graphic-cards - thus i think it's a generic problem:
if i switch back from X to the console the console is completely black - i can
blind type something and it works - that menas it is still functional but i
think the text color is'nt restored correctly - because i've tested it with
differend graphic-cards and thus xservers i think the problem is inside the
console code - interesting is that it only appears with monitores detected as
VGA-Mono - i also tried another VGA-monocrome monitor which was detected as
VGA-Color (don't know why) and this one worked correctly - that's all - maybe
someone may look into the code - if you have an idea send me the patches and
i'll try if they work
thanks in advance - t
