I also find this interesting URL, https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics/WITH_NEW_XORG , at the end of this, a table with something about "VT switching" (what I believe that is my problem). > ### for this question (the first) > > i'm going to ask: > > did you have a (telnet) in and run a video mode restorer program ? or > maybe have one run when X exits ? > > If I understand your question well, I am not accessing X by any other programs. Just using the normal "startx", directly on the console of the machine in question. The CPU is a i5/4xxx if that matters. What I also can see in https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics is ["Haswell" <not supported>, note: See Update i915 GPU driver to Linux 3.8 <https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics/Update%20i915%20GPU%20driver%20to%20Linux%203.8>; ]. > whateelse happens at X exit? if it's a kernel video mode support who > knows what braindamage it "could be" - you need to find a way to show us > (by logs) an error message.

Certainly is not a easy task manage delicate code with "moody" cards. now I will try two more test, run only with "vesa" driver, and then try also to plug on TV by HDMI port (yes, the mother board has 4 video exits: VGA, HDMI, DVI and DisplayPort). And just see what happens. thanks in advance for your time and help, vinnix
