Sadly, this did not fix it.

I seem to have misstated the problem I am currently seeing.  Back in
February when I upgraded from Xorg 7.3 to 7.4 I was having problems
_both_ with exiting X and switching from X to a VT.  Earlier today I
stated that I was still seeing both problems.  This is not true.  On
double checking before trying your latest patch I found that the
switching between X and VTs, and back again, now works.  I do not know
when that started working.  The problem I am still having, even after
applying this one line patch to a clean 7-STABLE, is that on exiting X
the video mode is corrupted - not restored correctly?

Do you still want me to try the patch you sent me earlier?

Thanks again.


Cheers,
       Nick.
