System is a dual Dell PIII with a PCI Matrox G450 to a single DVI flat panel on screen one. No second monitor. mga_hal port installed. It all works a treat until I switch from X back to the console with SHIFT-ALT-F1. This give me a blank screen with a monitor driven pop-up showing "Invalid refresh rate". If I then ALT-F7 to switch back to X the display returns normally. Any idea how I can get a clean switch from X to the console please? For logs see: Disabling ACPI (on a hunch from Google) didn't make any difference. Cheers, -- Mark A. R. Knight finger: markk@knigma.org Tel: +44 7973 410732 http://www.knigma.org/
