According to Warren Block <wblock@wonkity.com> on Wed, 10/15/14 at 19:33: > > That is what vt(4) does, supports a KMS text console which still works after > leaving X. It works on the Intel and Radeon systems I have tried. Then maybe the missing piece here (for 9.3-STABLE) is to include the KMS feature (if that is part of 9.3-STABLE)? I think I had stated earlier (much earlier) in this thread that I have a Radeon video card. My desired sequence: 1) log into FreeBSD 9.3-STABLE at the console (vty?) level 2) begin my Xorg session (% /usr/local/bin/xinit -- /usr/local/bin/Xorg) 3) perform whatever I need to do with xterms, browsers, editors, etc. 4) exit my Xorg session (thereby returning to the console (vty?) level) 5) log off FreeBSD 9.3-STABLE leaving my monitor at the ;login: prompt My problem (after upgrading to 9.3-STABLE and WITH_NEW_XORG=TRUE) is with step #4 above. Things appear to hang and I'm forced to reboot or to cycle power (which is a bummer due to fsck(8) taking so long) since I'm unable to log off cleanly. I still don't know what to do... :-( Regards, web... -- /"\ ASCII RIBBON / William Bulley \ / CAMPAIGN AGAINST / X HTML E-MAIL AND / E-MAIL: web@umich.edu / \ LISTSERV POSTINGS / 72 characters width template ----------------------------------------->|
